I must read your reviews and see what's worth reading on that list. I'd love to do this one again. The quality of the writer's just gets better every year.<br />You read 60 arcs?! Wow. I've read The Sheltering Sky by Paul Bowles and Death in Venice by Thomas Mann, I hope you enjoy them too. And I just finished The Broken Teaglass recently and enjoyed it very much. Happy reading in 2010.Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265301061583417768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-31066963607876603012010-01-02T22:46:46.738+01:002010-01-02T22:46:46.738+01:00You have some excellent self challenges ahead of y...You have some excellent self challenges ahead of you.

I lived in Germany for two years back in 2003-2005. Of course I hated living there at the time, but now I can't believe how much I miss it. I used to live in Schweinfurt which is about 2 hours east of Frankfurt. <br /><br />I hear ya on it being dismal there in February. It always bothered me how early it got dark there in the winter. Of course, the flip side is how late it stays light in the summer. Anyway, maybe you should read some sugary sweet books instead to cheer you up rather than dystopian ones to make you depressed an paranoid.
