50 books in a year isn't going to happen unless I swallow my academic pride and start counting my comics and magazines as books. The challenge claims that you can read anything at all. I wonder if I can include fanfic in my list. After all Adapt and Redemption may as well have been novellas ... Anyway, on to the list ....

Book 5. Utopia - Lincoln Child
I found this novel very interesting. I adore the works of Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child when they work together, and this book read just like one of their combined pieces, in terms of style. But somehow, this piece was missing something the tandem books have. That being said, it was still quite good. It's reminiscent of Dream Park by Larry Niven.


Book 6. The Book of the Dead - Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child
This is the last in the Pendergast Trilogy by Preston and Child. As with all their work, I loved it. The story was fast paced and kept you guessing.


Book 7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - J.K. Rowling
What can I say about this? It's Harry Potter. I've always felt that her appeal is in the mythos she's created, and not in the writing itself, because, honestly, she writes like she's new to this (which she is). I enjoyed it. It wasn't my favourite book, but I'm glad that she didn't cop out and made it war, not sunshine and roses.

Well this baby seems to be done. I'm not entirely sure about the make up sex, so any thoughts or criticism would be appreciated.

Tell me what you think!

For those who are interested, here are Parts One, Two, and Three.

And without further ado, here's the end of Thunder Crashes )
