30. Lord of the Silent - Amelia Peabody series

31. The Golden One - Amelia Peabody series

32. He Shall Thunder In the Sky - Amelia Peabody series

33. Children Of The Storm - Amelia Peabody series. And I've got three more to get and I'm current. I like this series a lot. Good, strong characters both male and female. Good history, and not using the time period as a reason to be bigoted.

34. Digital Barbarism by Mark Helprin. I tried to read it. Multiple times. He's got important things to say and I caught several of his points but I'd have to say it was a pretty dry read.

35. Un Lun Dun by China Mieville. This I enjoyed quite a bit and it's going on my "recommend to others" list. To me, this had the same sort of flavor as some of Neil Gaiman's works but still something all it's own. I wish I had a rebrella.

36. The Shamer's Daughter by Lene Kaaberbol. I think this lost a little something in the translation. The story is solid, sound and rather boring. It isn't a long book but it took much longer than I expected to get through it.

So far, so good. The list is by no means everything I've read this year but is the ones I've remembered to write down (and not lose.)
