I have a couple of books going right now, but hope to finish them off over the weekend so I can dive into one of my Sci-Fi choices. Now to figure out which one! I'm leaning toward I Am Legend while the movie is still fresh in my mind. I know Bookfool/Nancy loved Alas, Babylon, so that might be next. I read Dandelion Wine in 7th grade and absolutely loved it. I've always wanted to re-read it so this is a great reason to do just that. I've heard great things about Time and Again, so that's a definite go. I think Canticle and The Restaurant are the only two that I'm not quite as excited about. But who knows, they may surprise me.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, Carl.<BR/><BR/>Nan - LOL! :)<BR/><BR/>Lee - Ah, another vote for Alas, Babylon. Definitely going to the top of the stack - well, after I Am Legend. Have you seen the movie? We saw it this weekend. Absolutely loved it!! I can't wait to see it on DVD and watch all the bonus features.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-919690927270442832008-01-03T16:52:00.000-08:002008-01-03T16:52:00.000-08:00An interesting list.

Due to this book, I am still a bit obsessed with end of the world stories. Matheson and Bradbury are both great authorrs, although I prefer their short fiction to their novels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-50823868787115260442008-01-03T15:46:00.000-08:002008-01-03T15:46:00.000-08:00Better you than I, honey. :Better you than I, honey. :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22415234.post-3680796166972001702008-01-03T15:22:00.000-08:002008-01-03T15:22:00.000-08:00So glad you're (not quite) breaking your resolutio...So glad you're (not quite) breaking your resolution for the experience! Woo Hoo!!!<BR/><BR/>Great list. I really enjoyed I am Legend when I read it a few years back. Canticle is one I want to read sometime. I just bought a copy of Dandelion Wine to read for this experience a few days ago! Time and Again is a favorite.<BR/><BR/>Cool.Carl V.
