This list started as a record of one year of reading, because I never really kept track, and would sometimes pick up a book thinking I hadn't read it, only to realize that I had years previous. I was going to stop after a year, but, as you can see, I kept going, and will keep going as long as I can maintain this site. I don't know if any of this is useful to anyone but me, as it does let me know if I've read something.

I am also adding links to official sites, and or fan sites for the authors who have a presence on the Internet.
