Ah…a tremendous list, I see a lot of interesting titles here, and I very much look forward to reading your reviews on these as the year goes on. Very interesting indeed.
Thanks, Mike. I look forward to reading and reviewing.
Looks good, Ink Slinger! Have you read Tilt-a-Whirl before, or is this the first time? If so, you’re in for a treat.
I’ve never read Tilt-a-Whirl before, but I’ve heard lots of great things about it. Can’t wait to get my hands on a copy.
Hahahaahhaha!!! YES! Read ENDER’S GAME ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Muahahahaha.
I better go before I scare somebody….. o_O
*reaches for straight-jacket* Um, Abby…
That’s quite a list! I hope you’ll write some reviews, too.
I love To Kill a Mockingbird. One of my all time favs. I have The Closing of the American Mind. We’ll see if I ever get to it…
I plan to write quite a few book reviews this year… hopefully more than last year, but we’ll see.
wishing you a blessed new year ink! you are a blessing to the body and i’m thankful for you and your diligent work for the Lord! much love to you and your family!
Thanks, Christina! And a happy new year to you and yours as well!
An impressive list. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on some of these titles.
God willing, the thoughts I share on them will be worth sharing.
I hope you get to them all. Gilead is the best book I’ve read in a long time. Catch 22 will have you laughing until you cry and can’t see to read anymore. Brave New World will give you the creeps because it’s already here, and Gatsby and Mockingbird will settle into your soul permanently. Let us know as you read what you think.
I hope I get to read them all, too!
That’s the thing with book lists, though – it’s easy to say your going to read something, but actually doing it is another matter.
Glad to hear you loved Gliead – it’s currently my Mom’s favorite fiction book.
That’s a nice long list! The only books that I reconize on there are “Crime and Punishment” and “Northanger Abbey”. I haven’t read the former, but I have read the latter.
And I had no idea that “Bourne Identity” was a book. I had only heard of the movie. Was the movie based after the book or the book based on the movie?
To the KING be all the glory!

The movies (which happen to be favorites of mine) were based on the books, written by Robert Ludlum. Naturally, I wanted to read the original since I enjoyed the film adaption so much.
However, my best friend recently shot me an e-mail with a warning that the sexual content was quite high in the book – which is disappointing, since the movies managed to avoid that for the most part. Considering that, it’s very likely that I’ll strike it from my reading list and pick something else.
That’s too bad! It’s great that you had a warning beforehand though!
To the KING be all the glory!
