No set goal, other than more than in 2019...a year in which I didn't finish a book.
House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski absolutely killed me from September of 2018 until a couple weeks ago. Lost interest in the book, started watching more shows on Netflix and whatnot, and read a bunch of D&D rule books.
So far in 2020:
0.25 House of Leaves - Mark Z. Danielewski, finally finished this monster. Too artsy for me, and mostly boring. 3*
1. The Last Wish - Andrzej Sapkowski, paperback 359 pp. 4*
2. Threat from the Sea (omnibus of a novel trilogy) - Mel Odom, paperback 756 pp. 4*
3. Congo - Michael Crichton, paperback 316 pp. 3.5*
4. The Dreaming Hunt - Cindy Dees and Bill Flippin, hardcover 462 pp. 3.5*
5. The Wandering War - Cindy Dees and Bill Flippin, paperback 538 pp. 4*
6. Dragon Teeth - Michael Crichton, hardcover 295 pp. 4.5*
7. Cod:A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World - Mark Kurlansky, paperback 294 pp. 4.5*
8. The Founding - Dan Abnett, paperback 767 pp. (omnibus: 3 novels, 1 short story) 4.5* (Set in the Warhammer 40K universe)
9. Great North Road - Peter F. Hamilton, hardcover 948 pp. 4.5*
10. Fair Warning - Michael Connelly, hardcover 399 pp. 3.5*
11. The Complete Cthulhu Mythos Tales - H. P. Lovecraft, hardcover 593 pp. 4* (Barnes & Noble collection of stories)
12. Sword of Destiny - Andrzej Sapkowski, paperback 393 pp. 4*
13. Death on the Nile - Agatha Christie, paperback 351 pp. 4*
14. Cajun Justice - James Patterson & Tucker Axum, paperback 414 pp. 3.5*
15. Ford County: Stories - John Grisham, paperback 308 pp. 3.5*
15.5. Mark of the Beast - Scott David Aniolowski (editor), paperback 282 pp. 3.5*
