The list isn't quite done yet, but Michael wanted to see it. Comment with anything else you want me to read. By the way, I lost NaNoWriMo, but I'm gonna keep working on Telepsis as soon as finals week is over.

Also, because I forgot:
"The Innocents Abroad" is also non-fiction.
What is this book challeng thingy?
PS Yay for reading Oryx and Crake.
Oryx and Crake is wonderful, I just finished it after Guthrie, Ben Hartman and Charlie Koumpouras forced it upon me and loved it.
Add Mikhail Bulgakov's "The Master and Margarita" to your list.
