bookblogging: why I don't blog books
Apr. 24th, 2008 11:56 pmThis everything I can remember reading since...oh, March or maybe a little before? Probably no earlier than February. I jogged my memory by looking at my bookshelves; if it was from a library, or elsewhere borrowed, I may have forgotten about it. I borrow more novels/prose/nonfiction than I buy, so this list is a little slanted towards comics and graphic novels, which I buy more often, because less of what I want to read is available from the library in a regular and timely fashion.
It's also slanted towards comics and graphic novels because I read a lot more of them.
School-related/academic reading: uncounted multitudes.
Poetry: like you care.
Novels/prose books:
Kipling, Rudyard: Kim (reread), The Jungle Book.
Eddings, David & Leigh: The Belgariad, The Mallorean (rereads).
Stephenson, Neal The Diamond Age, Zodiac.
Can't remember the author: Keturah and Lord Death.
Alexander, Llyod: The Golden Dream of Carlo Chuchio.
Comic strip collections/comic book collections/graphic novels:
Various: The Big Book of Hoaxes.
Eisner, Will: The Spirit Archives vol 1, The Building.
Ishida Tatsuya: Sinfest, Sinfest: Life is My Bitch (all the Sinfest is technically a reread, since I read the strip online).
Warren, Adam: Empowered vol. 3 (damn! just...damn. Adam Warren's obscenely talented. I am interested in his ideas, and would like to subscribe to his newsletter).
Buja's Diary.
Geary, Rick: I cannot remember their damn names, but the Jack the Ripper book, and the Lizzie Borden book. Which reminds me,
Graphic Classics: the O Henry, the Lovecraft, and the Stoker.
Moore, Alan and Rick Veitch, Swamp Thing (whatever that first Moore volume is titled).
( Manga. This is where it gets long. )
And yes, this is typical.
