I have plans to count the unread books I own and keep an actual count in this part of the post so I can guilt myself into not buying more books :D

5/5

Grad school has decided reading time isn't important, but Christie is always worth the time.

1/5

This was a final attempt to enjoy Heinlein. While his work was obviously important in the building of scifi literature, his treatment of female characters makes me throw up in my mouth a little. When it comes to time periods and thoughts of the day, I can actually forgive a lot. But there's only so much you can take before you decide that, no, you're not going to force yourself to read books that make you feel like an entire pile of trash.
