45. The Count of Monte Cristo-Alexandre Dumas
I like poetry,long walks on the beach and poking dead things with a stick.
To elucidate on Paul's question: I originally started the list on the day the thread was created, and then decided to go back and figure out all I had read since the first (which I'm still not sure if it's completely accurate). You can do that if you want, it doesn't really matter. There're no rules.
Solar Pons volume 1-9. Pons is the best imitation of Sherlock Holmes, perhaps because the author of the short stories and one novel knew Sir Arthur Conan Doyle personally. These break down as follows:
#1 Regarding Sherlock Holmes
#2 The Chronicles of Solar Pons
#3 The Memoirs of Solar Pons
#4 The Casebook of Solar Pons
#5 The Reminisces of Solar Pons
#6 The Return of Solar Pons
#7 Mr Fairlie's Final Journey
#8 The Dossier of Solar Pons
#9 The Further Adventures of Solar Pons
Average book length 280 pages. What can I say? It was a very boring 4 days in the hospital, so I vanished into my books!
Some of us laugh
Some of us cry
Some of us smoke
Some of us lie
But it's all just the way
that we cope with our lives...
