Read 206 books in 2006

Also read, in translation, for Middle High German.

Some of it is sweet lovey stuff, but a lot of it is pretty religious—Abelard lectures Heloise on rules and how nuns ought to live.

By Gottfried Von Strassburg, translated into English. Read for Middle High German class. Romantic, sometimes unbearably dirty, and tragic.

Again with Prachett and Discworld. Some very funny moments in this one.

By Terry Prachett. Another Discworld book. This one had Rincewind in it. Funny and fun.

By Terry Prachet. A discworld book, and a lot of fun. Recommended, particularly if you are a fan of musical theatre.

(But it’s good even if you’re not.)

Great light reading; very funny.

By Jerry Spinelli.

Absolutely enjoyable. Recommended. Another Spinelli book about a kid who doesn’t really fit in, as different from Maniac Magee and Stargirl (which are themselves unique) as it is good.

One of those books that I’d heard about for years but never quite read.

Now that I have read it, I’m kicking myself for waiting this long. I should have read this when I was eight, so I would have had longer to enjoy it!

Science fiction, with a very human aspect. Excellent read. Recommended.

By Karen Romano Young. Gritty, realistic, fantastic, good.

Recommended.

Good fluff read. Based on the 1980 movie, and you can tell. =]

Third in a trilogy (sort of). Very good. I loved it. Even cried at the end.

If you read it, be sure to read Lirael first.
