May Random Reads selection

It's time to select my Random Read for May! Last month, my Random Read was Starrise at Corrivale by Diane Duane. I ended up giving up on it, because it was kind of terrible. At least it's off my pile now!

So it's off to the random number generator. I have 672 books on my TBR shelf at the moment, so I enter 1 as the min and 672 as the max, and hit Generate.

Drum roll, please!



For April's Random Read I'll be reading Jesus on Mars by Philip José Farmer. It's been on my TBR shelf on Goodreads since July of 2009, which is in the first few months after I got Goodreads, meaning I've probably had the book much longer than that. I think I got this one when my uncle cleaned out his attic and gave me a big box of books.

  1. Do you read a lot of Sci Fi? Personally I like a few sci-fi titles but most really aren't for me. I've heard of Farmer before but I've never read him. Have you read him before or is this your first time reading the author?

    1. I'm more of a fantasy reader, but I do enjoy some sci fi. I'm a total trekkie, and I also like what I've read of Frank Herbert, C.J. Cherryh, etc. This will be my first time reading anything by Farmer, though.

    1. Thanks; me too! Although the bright side of unfinished books (as long as I give up on them fairly quickly) is that it's a quick way to decrease my TBR pile. :)
