Comment: Thanks for sharing your lists! My good reads lists has some back from 2016, I think, but I never really got terribly organized - I try to read what I've bought new first, and then library books, but books I get as trades or buy used tend to get forgotten a little more often. When I started this whole procedure years ago, I wish I'd kept a written copy - my digital copy was eaten by my old computer. :( Along with the photos of the book stacks. :( :( I'm impressed by your progress though! :) and I agree about "Brave New World" - I never had to read it in school, neither did my kids, but I feel like I'm among the very last in the world to read it! Someday ... :)
Response: Now that I've finally read Brave New World, you might be officially last! Thanks for the rating. Oh, and if no one else said already, I'm happy to take over the TBR progress swaps. I don't really do the Unread shelf project so might drop that part, but I like the monthly check-in for my TBR list!

Comment: Well done, 10 books! :D I hope to read some Jules Verne in the Future. What was your favorite from the 10 books you've read? Thanks for sharing.
Response: Hard to choose! I think my favorites of these 10 was the short story collection What is Not Yours is Not Yours by Helen Oyeyemi -- These are super experimental stories, which is right up my alley.

Comment: Thank you for the postcard! Even though I have a degree in literature and have heard of Proust and his influence, I realized I've never read any of his work. I'm a slow reader, so I've added the audiobook of Swann's Way to my library wishlist.
Response: I have the same degree and never read Proust in school either. It's too long for even a semester, I'd say!

Response: I really enjoy them! But I don't usually enjoy the mystery genre -- for me it's all about the character of Maisie.

We listened to it together as a family and everyone really enjoyed it. :) And from your list - "An American Marriage" - I LOVED that book.

Comment: Thanks for sharing your list. A thought re prioritizing ... I found it really helpful dividing my books into categories. Somehow it made me more aware of what I actually had and also gave me lots of little lists which were a bit less overwhelming than the full list. For those of us with mega-big lists, it's hard to see progress, so having little lists might help us choose what to read next.
Response: Thanks - that's a great idea!

Comment: Thanks for your lovely letter, and I am so going to get that book of short stories! I LOVE short stories. Usually I think I read horror or fantasy short stories, but I also get the annual collection of short stories - I think it's just Best Short Stories of [year] and then edited by some famous author, and I love almost all of those, too. I'll let you know after I've read them what I think!
Response: Glad you enjoyed the letter! The New Yorker publishes a great short story each month too. I often find new authors there, though they definitely have their favorite authors they publish all the time. And I highly, highly recommend Alice Munro to all short story lovers!!

But he decided to name her Buckethead, so I decided to name her Amaria instead. But ever since I've seen your username, I've wanted to tell you that. This is beautiful zentangle art, thank you so much!
Response: That's hilarious!! I'm very glad you didn't let her be named Buckethead... does he call her that anyway? Also, so glad you like the Zentangle!

Comment: That's a very silly plot indeed. You did a good job outlining it and researching. I will have to take a page from your book and start outlining like that, laying all the possibilities out and then choosing one that works best. :) Very cool
Response: Thanks! When I do this type of writing (where I'm given random words/plots to start with) I always think about it that way. It's pretty fun to start with a goofy situation and then back your way out of it, trying to figure out how anything like that could have happened.

Comment: Thank you so much for the great postcard of Maine & the wonderful narrative! Wow! I've read about the Appalachian trail and would like to hike there if I make it the area, but I'm way too out of shape to go the whole way. Congratulations! Sherry
Response: You'd be surprised actually. Plenty of people start out somewhat out of shape. You'd have to do low miles at the beginning, but if you have the will, you can work your way up pretty quickly! Thanks for the rating!
