Yet another journal-type place for Darcy to rant, rave, and/or recuperate from the world.

A Series Almost 40 Novels Long

Not a lot has happened since April 25th, except that I made a viking chair for Anna's birthday. Steve at the Haven taught me how. I'm going to make 7 more--one for each of the people in my family, including me (Dad, Mom, Me, Kimba, Tim, Kayla, Jason).

I finished the 36th of the 37 Discworld novels written by Terry Pratchett this afternoon. I didn't know that Making Money was also a Discworld novel, because it wasn't included in my audio files. I'm downloading that one now.

I was a bit disappointed by book number 36 (Strata), because it turned out to be sci-fi, when the entire rest of the series was mostly fantasy/satire. It had an okay plot, even though none of the characters I'd come to love were in it, but if I ever re-read (er . . . re-listen to) the series, I won't be going through Strata again.

So far this year, I have read 37 books--soon to be 38. Here's the list (in the order that I read them):

  1. Confessions of a Part-time Sorceress: A Girl's Guide to the D&D Game by Shelly Mezzanoble
  2. The Colour of Magic
  3. The Light Fantastic
  4. Equal Rites
  5. Mort
  6. Sourcery
  7. Wyrd Sisters
  8. Pyramids
  9. Guards! Guards!
  10. Eric
  11. Moving Pictures
  12. Reaper Man
  13. Witches Abroad
  14. Small Gods
  15. Lords and Ladies
  16. Men at Arms
  17. Soul Music
  18. Interesting Times
  19. Maskerade
  20. Feet of Clay
  21. Hogfather
  22. Jingo
  23. The Last Continent
  24. Carpe Jugulum
  25. The Fifth Elephant
  26. The Truth
  27. Thief of Time
  28. The Last Hero
  29. The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents
  30. Night Watch
  31. The Wee Free Men
  32. Monstrous Regiment
  33. A Hat Full of Sky
  34. Going Postal
  35. Thud!
  36. Wintersmith
  37. Strata
  38. Making Money (I'm including it because I will be reading it.)
It's looking like I'll actually make (and probably surpass) the 50-book goal this year--yay!
