Just finished "The 100 Year Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared" which is one of the funniest books I have read in 2012. Today I start the 50 book pledge (Savvy Reader) 2013 and I have seven books on my list to start and DONT KNOW which one to start the year! Twelve Tribes (Ayana Mathis) a good one? Or a good crime/mystery "14" by Peter Clines that someone here on this forum has read. So many books so little time!

For my first book of 2013, I'm going to read Hugh Howey's newest addition to the Wool saga (Silo Series (Wool) [7]), Second Shift: Order that, like Night Watch, I received as a Christmas present. ![]() |

Well, I just read Heinlein's short story "All you Zombies" and thoroughly enjoyed it. Checked into the film adaptation that Sony has in the works. It's called "Predestination" and from what I can see, it turns Heinlein's story of a serpent eating it's own tail into the story of how Ethan Hawke's character doggedly pursues the one criminal who has eluded him throughout his career.
The story was great. I may skip the movie. |

Decided on something different next and chose "Proven Guilty" by Jim Butcher. I think that's the one I'm up to in the series. |

Dystopian Horror/Fantasy, not quite coherent (four stories written separately, with the ending being unknown when the first was written) and not really my kind of thing.
Next up: Firefly by Brian Stableford. I bought this with a load of other by Brian Stableford in a Fictionwise sale back in 2011. |

My first read of 2013 is The Pines by Blake Crouch, which I took out on loan via Amazon Prime. A great start to the reading year, it's a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma (you get the idea...), and is most intriguing. It's one of those "is everyone in on it except me?" stories.
