  Read 100 last year and at 25 now this year. Lower now since no longer have a job that let’s me read.

    I managed 55 last year and I don’t know how I managed that.

      One page at a time. Just like writing.

    1. Ralph Lister’s Skyhold series - Really great fun
    2. Devoured all of Honor Harrington by David Weber in about 3 months. It was all I could do not to just start them again I wanted more!
    3. Kevin J Anderson’s Hidden Empire series. A really interesting concept of an antagonist alien species. I liked them.
    4. Julie Kagawa’s Talon books - a fun bit of Urban Fantasy about dragons that shape shift into human form and try to live among us. I’m probably not its target demographic (but I like middle school and teen books more than I’m probably meant to), but I’d read these again.
    5. Currently reading Naomi Novik’s Telemere series and I’m 100% hooked. It’s more dragons, but this time set in the Napolionic wars.

        I gave it 1 star because it was so damn boring. I don’t usually read nonfiction and this book reminded me why. So if you like nonfiction give it a try.
