I DID IT!!!

Two goals met... 50 books, and over 15000 pgs!
46.) Dexter in the Dark, by Jeff Lindsay - 320 pgs
I loved the other books in this series a bit more than this one. It was something about the plot, with the ancient religions aspect, that just didn't play well to me. I mean, Dexter is what he is... and ethical serial killer. Serial killers? Believable. And finding someone who understands, who helps mold him into an ethical version? A little far fetched, but believable. How many mothers & fathers love kids that are terrible, and potentially unredeemable?
I'd prefer to think the "inside shadow" is something that he sees, and imagines answering him back. Having it be a real thing? Connected to an ancient religion? ... It's a bit much for me.
However, I *did* like the ending, and look forward to the next one, coming out in October.
47.) Grave Sight, by Charlaine Harris - 263 pgs - I've only just started it, and already it's grabbed me!
48.) Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury - 208 pgs
49.) Grave Surprise, by Charlaine Harris - 295 pgs
50.) An Ice Cold Grave, by Charlaine Harris - 280 pgs
Loved all the "Grave" books. Great original character, with a unique voice and situation. Much suspense, always thinking you know who does it, no it's that one, no that one... Great writing! Thanks,
