I'm making progress through my list of books to read before the end of this year. I've read two this week and should add a third by the end of tonight or tomorrow morning.

I visited the Green Lake branch of the Seattle Public Library. I was looking for the last in Phillip Pullman's series His Dark Materials. I found that, and I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. You may remember the movie it was based on.

Opening up the book to the first page I found this engaging beginning:

"On those cloudy days, Robert Nevellie was never sure when sunset came, and sometimes they were in the streets before he could get back."

Doesn't that freak you out a little? Draw you in? Widen your eyes?
