A Post Adding to My Book List (Or, Make-up Post #2)

This is a bit of a cheater post (because this should go on the Book List page of my blog). In the last three days I've added more books than I possibly can get through to my list of reads - some have recently been recommended by friends, and the others are books that I've been meaning to get to for a while but haven't picked up yet.

I also have a grand ole list from my list for school, but I'm not including them here unless they're books that were already on my list anyway.

And re-reads...I'm using modifying Alexandra's logic from an older GS podcast*, if I feel like I don't remember the book enough, it goes on the list.

1. Terry Pratchett, The Last Hero
2. Terry Pratchett, Unseen Academicals
3. China MiƩville, Embassytown
4. Joanna Russ, The Female Man
5. Joanna Russ, How to Suppress Women's Writing
6. Ben Peek & Stephanie Campisi, Above/Below
7. Justina Robson, Natural History
8. Ursula LeGuin, The Left Hand of Darkness
9. Paolo Bacigalupi, The Shipbreaker 
10. Paolo Bacigalupi, The Windup Girl
(Gaul - you and possibly SSK might hop on #9 and #10, from what I've heard of the books)
11. Ray Bradbury, A Sound of Thunder (Short Story)
(More to follow)

So, dear readers and fellow bloggers, what does your list look like**? What more can you add to this wonderful list that I already have?

*No, I don't know the number. This is as specific as I can get for now.
**What do you mean you don't have a list?! Make one now, I say!
