A Sense of Accomplishment

The other night, while i was laying out a scheduling for myself by which to study for the GRE, i felt compelled to compile a list of the books i have read in the past year. It got me in the right frame of mind to study, feeling as though i were coming from some knowledgeable and educated background and had the priviledge to study for the GRE -- yet another right of passage.

Reading Q's blog tonite, (THANKS, by the way, for linking me to the presence of Playboy at Bogland.)(That was sarcastic.)(So was that.), she also compiled a list of books. I now feel inspired to share my own list with all four of my readers.

Books i have read in the past year:

Antony and Cleopatra by Shakespeare
Learning to Curse: Essays in Early Modern Culture by Stephen Greenblatt
Fantasy: The Liberation of Imagination by Richard Mathews (yes, only one "t' -- weird, eh?)
A Game of Universe by Eric S. Nylund
Night Watch by Terry Pratchett
The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley
Harry Potter: The Whole Dang Series by J.K. Rowling
Reaper Man by Terry Pratchett
Dry Water by Eric S. Nylund
Hogfather by Terry Pratchett
The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents by Terry P.
Eric also by Terry P (are we noticing a theme here? as to be expected.)
The Cider House Rules by John Irving
The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver
White Noise by Don DeLillo
The DaVinci Code by Dan Brown
The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien (read aloud to me by Dan)

Started but am still in the middle of:

Currently reading:

Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Graham (reading it aloud to Dan)

I have also read the one i wrote a couple of times. Does that count, too?
