ewee (25/26): catching up...
still nowhere near able to post anything of substance, but thanks to the cold i've been fighting, i've managed to *almost* catchup. one more book this week? new book reports?...stay tooned. in the meantime, here's the listing thus far.
[warning: many books with pictures. and even some without words...also at least a couple of these completely sucked.]
18/26:Axis by Robert Charles Wilson
- good to ok. nothing likeSpin , but ok.
19/26:The Dog Who Loved Too Much by Robert Dodson
- completely sappy waste of time. and tho i love sap and dogs, don't bother with this one.
20/26:The Big Squeeze by Steven Greenhouse
- excellent. took me forever to read, because i had to chew on it all (and take notes along the way). might go back and buy this one.
21/26:Bios by RCW
- another ok RCW fix. quick read, good airplane fodder. (and if it hadn't've been a library book, i'd've happily jettisoned it for the luggage space on the way home...)
22/26:Gordon Yamamoto And The King Of The Geeks by Gene Yang
- Gene Yang brought usAmerican Born Chinese . loved that, loved this. quirky, odd, and sweetly deep. well drawn and written.
23/26:The Lost Ones by Steve Niles
- Ugh. you get what you pay for...this was a freebie at Green Apple. some misguided microsoft art thing. anyone want my copy? ugh.
24/26:Robot Dreams by Sarah Varon
- Beautiful, poetic, sweet. Buying more for friends. No words, kinda sappy, but in a really lovely touching way.
25/26:Devadatta (Buddha, Vol. 3) by Osamu Tezuka
- Amazing. Stayed up till 3am to read this. Beautiful line work, amazing amazing amazing. Gonna get all of the volumes as soon as I can...

shucks, you definitely lead the pack, ewee. Congrats!
shtanks...if i can get to the library before monday, i'll get to 26. we'll see...
I LOVE the picture of all the reading notes you took! (Can't believe another year of this blog is over.)
Thanks, y! Yeah, that book was worth its own report. I'll have to get back to it when I've got the time.
And I agree--can't believe it's been a year. But also glad to have this push to read. Thanks again!
