I just went through my book collection, I guess my small library, and typed out the titles in a list on my computer.  I’ve discovered that I’ve been underestimating how many books I have yet to read.  I have 116 unread books.  I guess I was a bit overzealous when I bought books over the past few years in Japan.  You see, sometimes it’s difficult to find books in English in Japan.  There are a handful of big bookstores that sell them, and I can never be sure if they’ll have more copies if they sell what they have.  Therefore, I often bought more books than I needed.  This creates a bit of a problem for me.  What do I read next?  I thought I’d ask you.  I’m going to list 7 books I’m considering, then I’d like you to vote on which one I should read.

I just completed Terry Brooks’ “Running with the Demon” and am currently reading “2001: A Space Odyssey” by Arthur C. Clarke.  Sometimes I like to read a complete series, if it’s short.  Other times, I mix it up.  So, what should I read next?
