jackofallgeeksBookmarked because it's a psychology blog on a psychology website, and I'd like to check them both out. My backlog of bookmarks is getting to be as bad as my "To Read" list at home...
Almost done with "The Subtle Knife," by the by. I think I like the first book more, though this second has points that I really enjoy, like the <spoiler> and the fact that <spoiler>. Still, I think he jumps between characters too much; Book 1 followed Lyra pretty much the whole way through, but Book 2 hops between three or four different characters. Of course, my consistency in reading time has also been lower, so maybe I just need to read it more-straight-through next time.
Vying for the next spot in my "Have Read" list is "Paradise Lost," "1984," and "Wicked." I'm really not sure which I want to read after "The Amber Spyglass," but I'm leaning toward 1984 as it's shorter than Wicked and more-accessible than Milton's poetry. But we'll see.
