Next on my list is "Buddha" by Karen Armstrong. I'm so extremely impressed with her erudition in both "A History of God" and "The Case For God" that I want more of her books even before finishing either of them.

The Metamorphosis and Other Stories - Franz Kafka

Paradise Lost, & Paradise Regained - John Milton

The Dharma Bums - Jack Kerouac

Last Of The Amazons - Steven Pressfield

The Divine Comedy - Dante Alighieri

Here are some books I intend on buying eventually hoping this year

  • Warrior's Sky Clan's Destiny
  • Warriors Night Whispers
  • Warriors Sign of the Moon
  • Warriors Crookedstar's Promise
  • Warrior's The Forgotten Warrior
  • Heroes of Olympus: The Lost Hero
  • Red Pyramid
  • Throne of Fire
  • Inheritance(I'll be buying this one as soon as it is released in November)
  • Mockingjay
  • Catchingfire
  • Tiger's Curse
  • Decision Points
  • The End of Days
  • Dragongirl
  • The Horse Whisper
  • War Horse
  • Sectariat
  • On Stranger Tides
  • Full Dark No Stars
  • 11/22/63
  • Hideaway
  • Who Fears Death?
  • Roboapocalypse

That's all on my current list of books I have a bunch more I want to get. I'm really falling behind a bit. I'll get back to it sometime. Warriors I think they release the books a little too quickly or I'm just a little slow on getting them. I'm not entirerly sure about the last three yet

A storm of Swords, Feast for crows, A dance with dragons. I'm almost finished A clash of kings so I will get the next in the series soon.

I also want to buy Times of Contempt (the next book in the witcher series) but sadly the English translation seems to have been delayed until next year.

Old Man and the Sea and Farewell to Arms are the two I'm trying to pick up soon. After that it's a wash, since all I can go by are books that are acclaimed since I don't know jack **** about books and don't get many recommendations.

I read it in December and really is a great book, but is very bleak. But, in fact, that is his intention.
