One of my least favorites so far. I didn’t want to read Updike, mostly cause he was half of what I found with the U authors. This book got high reviews on Amazon and sounded interesting, but I couldn’t really get into it and was really bored by the time I finished. =(

For the first 1-41 books I posted the book with the cover, but I got lazy with updating 43 things =(. But Yay!!! I finally finished 50! This is the first time I’ve done it since I started this goal 4ish years ago. Definitely worth doing, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to do it again for a while.
Having many books ready on my bookshelf really helped me. I also became a goodreads.com member and posted all my updates there instead of here.
Here’s the rest of the list:
42-44. The Black Jewels Trilogy by Anne Bishop
45. Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami
46. Morality Play by Barry Umsworth
47. The Memory Keeper’s Daughter by Kim Edwards
48. Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
49. Pygmalion by Bernard Shaw
50. Season of Passage by Christopher Pike
