I finished Call for the Dead. 160 pages- I really wish it had been one more page, but I really enjoyed it. I'm trying to make my way to Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy in the series, so I can finally watch the movie without guilt.

I'll probably use the morning to finish up the two short books I'm reading Steppenwolf and Call for the Dead. I am liking Call for the Dead, but I really don't think I'm ever going to understand Steppenwolf. P.s. Gaiman is awesome. Just don't read too many in succession. It does weird things to you. :)

Hi all! Looks like I'm co-captain. I'm not the most into spreadsheets, but I am oddly compulsive about lists. I'm thinking this will work out :)
✔ How many books you have read in 2014 (>100 pages) -82 (100 goal)
✔ How many books you plan to read 2015?
-around 100
✔ The continent you live in (so we can try and match time zones)
North America (US-Central)
✔ Would you be willing to be a Team Captain? Or Co-Captain?
-Co-Captain would be fine
✔ Is this your first team challenge with NBRC?
-Yes
I plan on finishing up a ton of series I'm in the middle of in the coming year, so this seems like a good first challenge (yay!). Let me know if I'm playing the wrong way :)NBRC Pyramid Challenge
