Moved bookshelves from friend's place to our place with help of said friend. Dragged bookshelves down hallway scaring felines and nearly squishing one of them. Zoiks!!! [I should have placed them in a secure room before doing this.] Put up shelves. Moved books off old bookshelves, placed books on new shelves. Dusted old shelves moved 'em into flatmate's room. Scavenged around house for books to place on new shelves. Found more books, put them on bookshelves. Added following to reading mound;
'Cryptonomicon' Neal Stephenson
'Truth' Terry Pratchet
'Stardust' Neil Gaiman
'The Stone Diaries' Carol Shields
'Lady of Avalon' Marion Zimmer Bradley
'By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept' Paulo Coello
'If Chins Could Kill' Bruce Campbell
'The Business' Iain Banks
'The Lord God Made them All' and 'All things Wise and Wonderful' James Herriot
'Anil's Ghost' Michael Ondaatje - Another book of his that I want to read is 'In the Skin of a Lion', but do not have the book as of yet.
'A Series of Unfortunate Events' Books 1-6; Lemony Snicket - had picked these up because I loved the introduction at the back.
'The Te of Piglet' Benjamin Hoff - Loved his other book, 'The Tao of Pooh' am hoping that this is as good.
'Les Trois Mousquetaire' Dumas - this has always been one of my favorite stories. Thought I'd give it a try in its original form. Though as my French is currently weak this should take a while.
'Red Mars' Kim Stanley Robinson - This is being revisited as I had started it and then promptly misplaced it.
'Soul of the Fire' and 'Faith of the Fallen' Terry Goodkind - Though do not know if I have the patience to read them.
'The Path of Daggers' Robert Jordan - Scratch that, I definitely do not posses the patience to keep reading his books. Perhaps in another decade or so...
'A brief History of Time' Stephen Hawking - am a science nut, 'nuff said.
These should hopefully keep me busy through the cold wintry months. Though I feel as if I shall need more fodder for ze mind, it is a hungry beast and always wants more. Got any suggestions?
