Gabriel Garcia Màrquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude. One of my favorite books. A tough read - and it seems to get more painful as I get older - but still an incredible novel.

Reading through the Time Quintet. I've only ever read A Wrinkle In Time, so I'm excited to read the rest of 'em.

Game Development with Unity by Michelle Menard. Not bad for an introductory book.

Oooh, you're in for a treat. Swiftly Tilting Planet was always one of my faves. You'll also want to dig up Arm of the Starfish and Ring of Endless Light. Arm features the kids from the first books as secondary characters, and then Ring carries forward Arm's primary character to act as one part of the romantic triangle in Ring. Think of them as "Expanded Universe".

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought Swiftly Tilting Planet was the best of the lot. :D The trilogy is fantastic; I haven't read the last two, though -- we own them all as a boxed set but haven't unwrapped it yet.

Trying to read the unabridged Count of Monte Cristo...that may have been a tactical blunder. So I took a break and blew through Fight Club.

Also finishing up Kushiel's Dart. I keep feeling like this book should have been a prequel rather than the first novel in a series.

I read the first 3 ages ago, and loved it so I hope you like it as well. Didnt even know the author had released a 4th until like 3 years ago and just havent gotten around to rereading the series.
