Another comment on the book reading thing

You may remember from previous posts that by a preponderance of votes it was decided that I would read a book entitled Fragile Things, which is a collection of short fiction. Well, I have successfully completed the entire book with the exception of the final story, which isn’t exactly a short story; in fact it is a novella set in the universe of one of the author’s other books—a novel called American Gods. This leaves me in a bit of a quandary as I’m a little bit uncomfortable at the idea of reading the novella before reading the novel.

So, I’ve decided to set aside Fragile Things for the time being until I have read American Gods. But first, I have to read Into the Wild. I promised to read that after Fragile Things. In short, it’s looking like I’m going to have a couple books up in the air. Nothing wrong with that.

Also, I said recently that I would be removing my Library page on the blog since I shifted over to Goodreads; I may have to rethink that removal. I hadn’t really thought through some of the links already in place in prior posts that I might break if I remove the Now Reading plugin altogether. I’ve got something to think about there; either I just accept some broken links, or I’ve got to go back and find and redirect them. That could be tedious. I don’t know just yet, but I think it means the Library will stay where it is for a while longer yet.
