speaking of reading...

Because I'm anal that way, I'm still keeping track of the books I read. Only two speculative novels in recent months, and they're both old favourites (I performed an excerpt of the Wilson recently, and was compelled to keep going). Most of the genre titles I'm picking up these days are for blurbs and they aren't out yet. At least there are some more ladies on the list, though...

• Angela Carter: The Bloody Chamber
• Lee Child: Gone Tomorrow
• Michael Chorost: Rebuilt
• Mrs Gaskell: The Grey Woman
• Andy Griffiths: Pencil of Doom!
• Robert A Heinlein: Have Spacesuit--Will Travel
• Jeff Lindsay: Dexter by Design
• Alan Moore et al: The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (Volumes 1 and 2), Watchmen
• Patrick O'Brian: Desolation Island, The Fortune of War, The Surgeon's Mate, The Ionian Mission, Treason's Harbour, The Far Side of the World, The Reverse of the Medal
• Dorothy Porter: What a Piece of Work, El Dorado
• Robert Anton Wilson: The Universe Next Door

What are you reading at the moment?  Is there anything I should add to the pile?

Dennis Wheatley--what a blast from the past! I must dig something out by him too. Used to love his books, way back when.

I'd love to read some shorts but have my head in novel-land, as usual. One day I'll take a month off and catch up on all the excellent Australian anthologies published in the last ten years or so...

That's amazing, Jason. I never knew you were such a fan!

Helps explain the turtle picture on your LJ, I suppose... :-)

Too many books, too little time. I feel the same way about Robert Anton Wilson. I'll never get through everything he wrote, and that's probably for the best. :-)
