[Kwill]

I'm really late to the party, but I've been reading. I guess I just list up what I read so far this year? Not necessarily in the order read.

1-16. Volumes 4 to 19 of Ascendance of a Bookworm (本好きの下剋上, Japanese-language light novel version) by Kazuki Miya.
17. The Making of a Manager by Julie Zhuo.
18. Hillbilly Elegy by JD Vance.
19. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs.
20. Days at the Morisaki Bookshop by Satoshi Yagisawa (English translation by Eric Ozawa)
21. The Sacred Tree (精霊の木) by Nahoko Uehashi (Japanese version)
22. Maximum Ride by James Patterson.
23. Beauty by Roger Scruton.
24. La Duchesse by Bronwen McShea.
25. Early Retirement Extreme by Jacob Lund Fisker (reread)

I wish I'd joined sooner. I feel sure I must have read some other things all the way through, but I can't remember what they were. There were also some more serious books that I dipped into or used but didn't read all the way through. Mostly I have been enjoying the Ascendence of a Bookworm series this year. I'm slower at reading in Japanese, so those are taking more time. It's the story of a young woman who loves books but is transported to a world with few books and no print culture. She's determined to make a life surrounded by books again, even if she has to change the world to make it happen.

37. Mona Lisa Overdrive, by William Gibson.

This last book was very tiresome to read. There are like 5 different storylines. Each chapter is about another person and location. The title of the chapter doesn't give a clue which storyline it is. The first sentences of each chapter don't give a clue either. Somewhere halfway the page, I start to understand which storeline it is about.

Next 20, favourites marked. I'm knocking them out fast right now since this part of the Harvard Classics is skewing towards shorter books, but that will change in about a week.

361. The First and Second Epistles of Paul to the Corinthians
362. Hymns of the Christian Church

363. Buddhist Writings
Shoutout to this one for making surprisingly coherent arguments for why you should dress in tree bark instead of clothing (12 point argument) and live under a tree instead of in a house (10 point argument). Not what I was expecting at all.

364. Chapters from the Koran

365. The Bhagavad Gita

And that makes 365!
366. Edward II by Christopher Marlowe

367. The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai
I've been seeing this on a lot of people's reading lists and decided to give it a shot. So cozy and fun, totally a Before the Coffee Gets Cold vibe.

368. Hamlet by William Shakespeare
369. Shadows of Truth by Astrid Scholte
370. King Lear by William Shakespeare
371. Macbeth by William Shakespeare

372. The Thirteenth Child by Erin Craig
I always love returning to this fairytale-retelling world. It's a great interconnected standalone series.

373. The Tempest by William Shakespeare
374. The Shoemaker's Holiday by Thomas Dekker
375. The Alchemist by Ben Johnson (I also read The Alchemist by Paul Coelho earlier this year, so I managed to to accidentally read two books with the same name in one year!)
376. Philaster by Francis Beaumont

377. The Duchess of Malfi by John Webster
It's uncommon to read older plays with such an excellent female lead. She's smart, witty, brave, and interesting in general.

378. A New Way to Pay Old Debts by Phillip Massinger
379. Thoughts by Blaise Pascal
380. Letters by Blaise Pascal

Goals progress:

Shoot, I don't think I'll make it to 50 this year but I'm going to keep at it. Beautyland and The Queen's Gambit were so, so good. I've seen the Netflix series and I know what happens, but I couldn't put down The Queen's Gambit! It's fairly short, too, if anyone needs something quick.

29. Wrong about Japan, by Peter Carey

30 & 31. Volumes 20 and 21 of 本好きの下剋上 (Ascendance of a Bookworm)

Trying to think back to other things I read early in the year before joining the challenge. I think the following were also this year, so let's add them in to have a chance of reaching 50...

32. Miss Felicity Beedle's The world of poo by Terry Pratchett
33. Monstrous regiment by Terry Pratchett

Also in progress are Les Misérables, How Women Rise, The Religious Sense, Keeping in Balance: Creating Order Within, Read to Lead, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, and a few Japanese and Korean language textbooks. I rarely read the nonfiction and textbooks all the way through, so I'm not sure when to count them. Les Misérables was making me miserable, but I should probably pick it up again since I was more than half of the way through.

Currently reading: Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson

Trying to get RoW finished before the final book of this Stormlight Archives arc comes out this week. I'm clearly not going to hit my last year reading total (67 books) but I read a lot of longer books this year, I'd be interested to see how the "number of pages" compare on Good reads. Number of pages in parenthesis because I listened rather than read several of these.
