Some books arrived involuntary, but I suppose I still wasn't as disciplined as I ought to be, if I'm intending to read all my own books!<br /><br />Maybe Hap/Leonard might be a bit more me than you, but if you can give him a try at least you'll know once and for all.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-82240648441260838732016-03-14T03:32:39.713-07:002016-03-14T03:32:39.713-07:00Fairly modest compared to last year, so at least t...Fairly modest compared to last year, so at least that's progress of sorts!col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-75178882554830554572016-03-14T03:31:55.105-07:002016-03-14T03:31:55.105-07:00Not yet got close to starting that one, I'm af...Not yet got close to starting that one, I'm afraid.

The Lansdale is a great title.

Every time I look at my shelve of unread books, I am appalled, how will I read them all? <br /><br />After reading more about Hap and Leonard I am beginning to think that they are too something for me...too hard-boiled? Noir? Violent? but I will try at least one book anyway.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-58477303997198146022016-03-12T14:43:16.611-08:002016-03-12T14:43:16.611-08:00I suppose that's a modest haul for you!

And I couldn't help noticing some Lawrence Block slipping in there among the rest... I have to say I like that title <i>Honky Tonk Samurai</i>. It's certainly attention-getting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
