Hamlet, William Shakespeare. This is the first book I read on my Kindle! I wanted to read it because the overall story one of my favorite current TV shows, Sons of Anarchy, is influenced by it. Hard to judge this since it’s so old and the speech is so different that it was hard to understand what people were talking about sometimes. It’s alright. The David Tennant movie version is arriving from Netflix today. Maybe I’ll enjoy that more.

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest, Stieg Larsson. This is the last book in The Millennium Trilogy :(. What a great end to the series! It was a continuation of the story started in the last book and it tied up all the loose ends nicely. The last 2 books were their own complete story. I know there’s a 4th book in legal limbo, but I would be happy if there were the last one.

Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, Michael Lewis. I read this on my Kindle for free thanks to Amazon’s Lending Library thingy. It’s about how one of the poorest baseball teams, the Oakland A’s, managed to win so many games and do well against much richer teams. It’s a good book if you like baseball, which I do, though not as much as I used to. As much as I love statistics, there was too much of it in this book. Maybe I would’ve liked this more if I read it when I was more into baseball. Another thing, I didn’t like the way that players were thought of as chess pieces instead of human beings. I need to read some fiction quickly.

I’m pretty sure there’s a way to embed my Goodreads review here, so I’ll probably do that from now on.

I added all the Kindle books I have acquired to my reading list. Woah! I’m going to try to get through 20 of the unread ones and not add any new ones in 2012. Like that’ll happen.
