Title: 2023 - TRACK THE BOOKS YOU READ! (Sticky please!) Post by: indianasmith on January 10, 2023, 10:40:57 PM In 2018 I read 60 books.
In 2019, I read 46 (in my defense, a couple of them were whoppers of over 600 pages!) In 2020, I read 43, but there were NO cartoon anthologies on the list this time! In 2021, I read a total of 46 books - some pretty massive biographies (600+ pages) included. In 2022, I read 66 books - including reading the Sandman saga TWICE, at least. Also re-read Colleen McCullough's MASTERS OF ROME series - thick, chunky books, but I love them! And the usual mix of history, biography, and fiction. Now it's 2023!

Title: Re: 2023 - TRACK THE BOOKS YOU READ! (Sticky please!) Post by: Sitting Duck on March 10, 2023, 08:24:17 AM Just started The Three Musketeers This brings to mind something from what I believe was a fan-made Knights of the Dinner Table comic strip where they're playtesting a musketeer era RPG. B.A. is narrating a scene where a guy is attempting to goad one of them into a duel when Bob and Dave both declare that they shoot him. It follows thusly. B.A.: You shoot him?!? With what? Bob: With our muskets. Dave: Standard issue gear for musketeers, dude. |
