Wow - more than half way there already . . . good for you, Maria!

Thank you! I can now add book 38: The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett.

Good gracious--how do you read so fast?

Maria, I admire you for getting through "Pillars". I tried that one and gave up after a bit - it's very long, and there are some brutal scenes that were quite hard to take. Altho' I did give up on it, I kind of hated to do so. Follett is a talented author and it "Pillars" takes place in a most interesting era in European history.

Mary Alice, I don't have any kids, and don't watch much TV, so I have heaps of time to read :)

Kay, there are definitely some very brutal scenes in "Pillars", and they did get to be a bit much at times, but generally I loved the book. I simply couldn't put it down, and finished it in three days.

Book 39: Enchantment by Orson Scott Card

Book 40: Boundaries by Henry Cloud

Book 49: Insomnia by Stephen King

Book 50: Leave Me Alone, I'm Reading Finding and Losing Myself in Books by Maureen Corrigan

Book 51: The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis

Book 52: My Swordhand is Singing by Marcus Sedgwick

Book 53: A Deadly Habit by Andrea Sisco

Book 54: Traveling Mercies Some Thoughts on Faith by Anne Lemott

How was Insomnia?

Absolutely amazing! It may have been that I wasn't expecting much, but I have to say it's the best Stephen King I've ever read.

How was "Leave Ma Alone, I'm Reading"?

Unfortunately not nearly as good as I had expected. I found it hard to get interested and couldn't figure out what her red thread was supposed to be. If you want to read something along the same lines (but heaps better) I can highly recommend So Many Books, So Little Time A Year of Passionate Reading. I REALLY enjoyed that one.

Thanks for the warning/suggestion! :)

Book 55: Pirates of the Relentless Desert The Clouded World Book Two by Jay Amory

Book 56: House of Stairs by William Sleator

Book 57: The Thirteen Treasures by Michelle Harrison

Book 58: The Innocent Mage by Karen Miller

Book 59: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis

How was The Innocent Mage? It's on my list of books 'I might be interested in'.

It's excellent, but make sure you have "The Awakened Mage"/"Innocence Lost" (apparently the second book has two titles depending on where you buy it) readily available. You'll want to dive straight into it once you finish TIM.

Book 60: Third by Lorna Summers - hasn't been published yet unfortunately. I got to read an ARC! :D

Book 61: The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer

Book 62: Tonni på tourné (Tonni on Tour) by Estrid Ott - one of my favourite Danish authors.

Book 63: Addition by Toni Jordan

Book 64: The Music Teacher by Barbara Hall

Book 65: The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis

Book 66: The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis. This one always makes me cry. Especially where Aslan tells Lucy they're back to stay: "The term is over; the holiday has begun. The dream is ended; this is the morning." Gives me chills just to write it!

The Last Battle always made me so angry about Susan (won't say anymore in case of spoilers, but I never liked that part)!

Same here, but what made me accept the idea is that there's no indication that it was permanent. She might still have another chance.

In my review I linked to a fanfic about Susan's life after "Voyage of the Dawn Treader" - it's not terribly long, and I think you'd really enjoy it.

Book 67: Grand Avenue by Joy Fielding

Book 68: Finnikin of the Rock by Melina Marchetta
