2. Reamde by Neal Stephenson

I really enjoyed this thriller from Stephenson. Sure it is long and took a while to get through, but it always held my interest and was a fun story. His spin on the MMORPG is an interesting one - creating an in game economy that has out of game connections built in (as opposed to WoW where the connections are there, but against the rules.)

- nothing beyond another book read, but it was started last year before the challenge, and was a LibraryThing free book that I needed to read and review.

Yesterday I was in the city for a walk with Naomi and some of the other PhillyFit folks. After the walk I found that Bookhaven was just a few blocks from my car, so we went to check it out. Very nice store, and cool cat :)

I read 1 & 2 while using Nebula award winners as my reading list. So far haven't been disappointed with this plan, but I do still have a lot of books to read.

Both are on my list of 12 Nebula winners to read this year :) (Which was my main excuse for buying them).
