April 2012

Despite the number of volumes I'm adding, the truth is that I did not read all that much this month.  Most of these are comic books and those do not require a huge investment of time as a regular novel will (although they sure can pack a punch in ten pages that takes many novels a hundred to pull off.)

Novels: Serenity by Keith R.A. DeCandido (adapted from the movie); Catching Fire and Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins; The Killer Angels by Michael Shaara

Graphic Novels: Ranma 1/2: Vol. 7, 8, 15, 21-23, 25-31, 33; Maison Ikkoku: Vol. 3 & 5; and Mermaid Saga: Vol. 1 & 3 by Rumiko Takahashi (I think she may be the best romance storyteller today); Showcase Presents: Batgirl Vol. 1; and The Dreaming Collection by Queenie Chan (an awesome ghost story with some very dramatic characters and a plot that kept me guessing to the end.)

I don't know how much reading I'll get done this coming month.  As things look, I'm probably going to be reading more nonfiction than anything else.  But life is getting in the way.  It's the main reason I didn't post at all last week and I'm hoping that I can get through life in a decent manner in the coming weeks.  Heaven knows I won't stop reading entirely.  I just hope I don't push it past excess.

  1. Ah, Ranma 1/2. I should pick that up again. I think I read only the first 5 or so last time.
