Specifics: Well, I will also stick to Malazan this year. Those 7.5 books will cover my fiction reading, as I always read non fiction on alongside fiction. On the non fiction side I have two big tomes by Carl Jung and an even bigger tome by Oswald Spengler. When I get through those I will hopefully get around to read "The basic Bakunin" which is a work that covers many of his theories and speeches(Anarchism).

Read 14/10/2015-Mr. Ganandorf-Totals: None given
Andreas Eschbach: Lord of All Things: one of those scifi books that gets filed in the 'Lit' section. perhaps a bit slow, chronicle of a complicated relationship between a French woman and a Japanese/American man. includes magic, nanobots, aliens, ancient mysteries, the Devil's Island, and an ending that would make an Inchoroi smile. was a really good, tragic book. -
ReadLaline Paull:The Bees: 1984 for bees, but that's how they like it. some interesting chivalry stuff imported into the story BUT the author really tries really hard not to over-humanizing the bees. lots of descriptions involve scent. -
ReadAndy Weir: The Martian: MacGuyver on the Red Rock. Very fun. -
ReadMark Haddon: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time: pov of an autistic boy trying to solve the mystery of a dog's death. author seems to have done a ton of research for what it's like to see the world this way. -
ReadHerman Koch: The Dinner: fancy eating parallels increasing distressing acts of violence, can recommend. -
ReadScott Hawkins: Library at Mount Char: a really different kind of fantasy set in the present and really disconnected from other trends, i think. the most powerful person in the world is missing and his proteges are dealing with it, falls a bit slack at the end, but was well worth it. -
