I decided to do the 50 books in a year, and since I just discovered this near the end of October my year is running November-November. It's really just a good excuse to chronicle what I read in my LJ. The books so far:
( Books 1-4 )I started
Beast by
(not sure of her first name) Jo Napoli last night, and it's okay, but not great--I'm already about two-thirds into it, actually. The way she'll use a Persian word and then give the English translation makes it really jumpy to read. I'm tending to just skip the Persian words entirely. I'm hoping work will work out for me tomorrow so that I can get to the library tomorrow between my two jobs. My books that I have out (the first two plus another random one) are overdue as of yesterday, but work and the holiday have been conspiring against me getting there while still open :-P This is why I'm reading this last one, actually. It's been sitting on my bookshelf for two or three years now.
