read a book every month in 2008

I read…

Farewell to Manzanar by Jeanne Wakatsuki Houston and James D. Houston

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

And I re-read The Hobbit, by J.R.R. Tolkien.

Basil of Baker Street by Eve Titus.

It was short, so I’ll probably read something else before the month is up.

Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw.

Maybe I should have read something a bit spookier?

The Invisible Man by H.G. Wells. Was immediately inspired to watch the movie. Woot.

The Neverending Story.

Or was that at the end of July? I’m not sure, but lets keep things simple, righty-o?

Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH

The Cat Who Ate Danish Modern

Bridget Jones’s Diary

The Cat Who Turned On and Off

The Cat Who books aren’t great literature I’m sure, but I like ‘em anyhow.

Watership Down by Richard Adams

May I say amazing?

The Cat Who Knew a Cardinal by Lilian Jackson Braun (another murder mystery)

The Witches by Roald Dahl

Nothing too heavy, but I have started on Watership Down, by Richard Adams…I’ll probably finish it up sometime in June.

I Am Legend by Richard Matheson.

There were also a bunch of short stories in the back of the book (presumably by the same author), and I read those too.

Cesar Chavez and la Causa by Dan La Botz
