Status: incomplete.
Simple put, the status will stay that way; however, I have made severe progress over my winter break. Spook and Stiff, excellent non-fiction book both by Mary Roach. One involves an inquiry into the spiritual after-life, whereas the other has to do with a physical after-life; what happens to cadavers once life is gone. Both very interesting, entertaining and informative. Whilst she has no background, she doesn't act like she does, creates a wonderful author who's writing for people who also don't know much about the subject matter.
Other books I read included the start of a severe addiction; comic books. I've picked up Fables, which is a series in which our beloved childhood fairytale characters whom have been exiled from their home nation to ours, where they are and have been hiding in New York City over hundreds of Years. Another is a sub-series off of Fables, called Jack of Fables, as in Jack and the Beanstalk, Jack Frost, and pretty much any other maniacal character named Jack, he gets credit for. The League of Expeditionary Gentlemen is yet another comic series I have picked up, and it is set in the Victorian Era, very Steampunk but mildly grotesque, so tread cautiously.
Happy readings!
