Reading List 2011 second half

The second half of 2011 was about starting to finish series. I am basically now done with all but current materials from life in Bon Temps for instance. I cleared out my library queue as much as possible and will start 2012 with a small stack of books to read to complete some series so I can move on to Game of Thrones, some graphic series I want to get complete or current, and a soccer list, maybe the Don Draper list too. Then, I can look at new materials and what is left over from old reading lists. This list does not take into account the other reading I do like my weekly comics, Astronomy Magazine, various columnists or bloggers, and the like.
