It's been a while since I've done a book list. This one's a bit different, in that I am not listing books I want to buy, nor are all of the books on it ones I've already read. Instead, this is a list of the books currently on my shelf. Which basically includes anything I've bought and/or read since this summer. Damn, but this is an intimidating list.

My own shelf of books is very small, but I've got a shitload still in boxes, and a number scattered around that I really should get to reading. The shelf itself is currently devoted solely to finished stuff.

Season of Mists (V. 4 of The Sandman) ~Neil Gaiman

Personal favorite of the series. All of 'em are good, but this one is a... simple, pleasant joy to read compared to the often much more complicated other volumes.

The Innocent Mage ~Karen Miller
The Awakened Mage ~Karen Miller


And I've been wondering how these are. Shares opinions, yes?

The Sandman will probably be one of the last things I get to, for the simple fact that I still have six volumes to buy, and I'm currently trying to save money. But I am impressed that, after being rec'ed the series, it has yet to disappoint me, as a number of other things that were recommended to me have.

It will probably be a while before I get to the Karen Miller books. If only because so many other of the books on my shelf look more interesting. Plus I've been in a very vampire-ish place lately, so all the vampire books will definitely be getting read first. But I will let you know what I think, once I've read them.
