Books Read in 2011

Thanks to Borders going under, I was able to read a bit more than I would have this year. If I had continued working, I probably would have only finished about 28 books. I mean the last 4 out of 5 books well well over 500 pages, with King, Martin and Williams being between 700 to 900 plus. Basically, I probably would have finished Stephen King and been happy with it. Until I get a job, I'm going to work on a few long books. The next 4 books in the George R.R. Martin books total somewhere in the area of 4,000 pages, so that's first. I'm also wanting, for the first time since there original release dates, to re-read the 7 volume Harry Potter series, and re-read the entire Lord of the Rings series (including The Hobbit) before the end of next year (because The Hobbit film adaptation hits in December). All of this, or course, depends on if I get a job.

And I don't kill myself.
