    Well, I’ve read 8 of the fiction novels you read. I hated Paddy Clarke until the last little bit. Then it all fell into place. I also liked The Time Traveler’s Wife more than I expected. I hated The Alchemist. Seemed too contrived.

    I am just so impressed that you can list all the books you have read over the last couple years. I now absolutely must keep a journal of all the books I read next year.

    I didn’t care much for “Yule.” I ended up giving it away. I liked it at first (enough to bring it home) but when I really sat down w/ it, I didn’t find much of use for me.

    BTW: This is an impressive list!
