A REAL BOOK THIS TIME! It's almost like I've stopped being worthless... nearly so, in any case.
Total: 28.5 ... to all the excellent psychological thrillers of Karin Alvtegen of Sweden: Betrayal, Shame, and the forthcoming Shadow. Like James M. Cain, you don't put down an Alvtegen book once you pick it up.

19) Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secret ... ... but I'm going to jump in anyway. I loved Ender's Game too and have also read Ender's Shadow, Shadow of the Hegemon, Shadow Puppets and Shadow of the Giant and Speaker for the Dead. I loved them all, but especially the Shadow books. After Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow (which ... Shadow Puppets by Orson Scott Card ... Mind

Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul, Ender's Shadow and Xenocide, Children of the Mind and Shadow of the Hegemon and Shadow Puppets, and Where the Red Fern Grows. Impressive Card collection, by the way.
