Petey's
Reading List 2006
Petey's
reading list for 2006 gets off to an earlier start this year
than it did last. Having everything already in place means that
my to do list for this project now consists only of reading
previously unread books, and updating the book list.
You'll
notice that my reading preferences include an eclectic mix of
genre fiction—science fiction and fantasy, mystery and
suspense, action thrillers, contemporary and popular fiction—with
a smattering of non-fiction thrown in for times when I get to
feeling that there's too much sanity in my life.
Clicking
on a book's title opens a new window and takes you to the specific
book on the Powell's Books Web site. There, you can learn more
about the book, learn more about the author, or purchase the
book if you're so inclined.
