Reading Log

This page will contain a list of all the (fictional) books that I have read. I'll update this page whenever I finish reading a book, or whenever I remember a title that I have read before. Also, for books that I have read a long time ago, the date/year would be approximated.

Note 1: I spent most of the summer of 2010 reading books written by Agatha Christie, and I read them in no particular order. So even though most of them are labeled as "August," they could also have been read in July or September

Note 2: I only read the first 114 pages of the book (out of 562 pages), so I did not actually finish the book. Why? I was too eager to know the ending and I read the spoiler...
Note 3: Authors: RJ Gilmour, Davina Bhandar, Jeet Heer and Michael C.K. Ma
