And one I accidentally left off the previous post:
71) Beguilement (The Sharing Knife, v1), by Lois McMaster Bujold (ebook)
I enjoyed it. It held my attention. And yet, thinking back, not much actually _happened_. There was one big fight and one major life event, but clearly this is the beginning of the larger tale; it doesn't have an overall plot and resolution of it's own. The age difference between the male and female leads would squick me in real life, but I accept more in fiction, so it didn't bother me so much. I'll most likely keep going with the series, but I haven't picked up the next one yet. Unlike print books, I don't worry much about ebooks going out of print or becoming impossible to lay hands on, so I'm in less of a hurry, and I have a bit of a backlog I want to read from. (not too much, as I was not a big early adopter, but past Hugo packets and such.)
