The TBRin2014 List

[lagilman]

As mentioned in a previous post, Catie Murphy put forth her plan to Read the Goddamned Books on My Goddamned Shelf in 2014 (my words, not hers) and I thought "okay, yeah."

I've excluded the books currently residing on my e-reader because those get read on a weirdly random but regular basis, as opposed to the must-be-at-home-curled-up physical books, and not counting anything that no longer fits my reading tastes. As follows, in no particular order.

DARK MATTER, Peter Straub
LOWTOWN, Daniel Polansky
CARNIVAL FOR THE DEAD, David Hewson
INK, Amanda Sun
PRECIOUS DRAGON, Liz Williams
THUNDER ROAD, Chadwick Ginther
CONJURED, Sarah Beth Durst
CHINA MOUNTAIN ZHAN, Maureen McHugh (no I don't know how I never got around to reading this either, shut up no shaming allowed here)
WHO FEARS DEATH, Nnedi Okorafor
DARK OF THE MOON, John Sandford
STAMPING BUTTERFLIES, Jon Courtney Grimwood
THE GLASS RAINBOW, James Lee Burke
CITY OF CAIN, Kate Wilhelm
EIFELHEIM, Michael Flynn
THE SILENT LAND, Graham Joyce
ENCHANTED, Alethea Kontis
LIBRIOMANCER, Jim Hines
THE GOD OF THE HIVE, Laurie King


That's...not too bad, right? I can do that, even though I read fewer than 20 books (published, not-in-mss-form) novels in 2013?

And I'm not going to promise not to buy any new books until I finish, either. I know myself far too well for that....

Alethea Kontis' ENCHANTED is an utter delight.

Laurie King's GOD OF THE HIVE is, as usual, one of the best reads of any year you happen to read it.

Must read Libriomancer. Do let us know what you think of it.
