As the Adventure Draws to a Close.....

I am within a day's time from finishing The Hobbit.  And that means it's time to prepare my next book.  After a bit of snooping on my library account online, I found to my immense delight that I have two books in: Johannes Cabal, The Detective (sequel to Johannes Cabal, The Necromancer) and Albert Camus's The Stranger.

I'm really excited to read both of these: The Detective has been on my reading list ever since I finished The Necromancer, and The Stranger is only reading list so many times (from continuous recommendations) that if I don't read it soon, it will continue to taunt me until I do.

So, there you have it.  A review for The Hobbit will be online in the next 48 hours, and soon, reviews for The Detective and The Stranger will follow in its wake.  Looking forward to hearing your opinions on these things :)

  1. I'm excited for your review of The Stranger. It is one of my favorites. Twisted and disturbing in a good way. I thought it was very interesting and eye opening.

  2. I'm looking forward to reading it even more now, Robby :) I'll be running out to the library tonight to pick it up.
