Read 70 books. Among those 70, finish reading the works** of Stephen King.
I read a lot of Stephen King in 2016, and even became a part of a Stephen King book club with some friends. Given that he is probably my favorite contemporary author, I figure I should read his complete works. I'm about halfway through them as of right now - so only 1 million more to go (technically 45). Here are the works I have yet to read, but will be reading in 2017:
- Bag of Bones
- The Bazaar of Bad Dreams
- Black House
- Blaze (as Richard Bachman)
- Christine
- The Colorado Kid
- Cycle of the Werewolf
- The Dark Tower: The Wastelands
- The Dark Tower: Wizard and Glass
- The Dark Tower: The Wind Through the Keyhole
- The Dark Tower: Wolves of the Calla
- The Dark Tower: Song of Susannah
- The Dark Tower
- The Dead Zone
- Desperation
- Different Seasons
- Dolores Claiborne
- Dreamcatcher
- Duma Key
- End of Watch
- Finders Keepers
- Firestarter
- From a Buick 8
- Four Past Midnight
- Full Dark, No Stars
- Hearts in Atlantis
- Insomnia
- It (*GASP* I know, I know)
- Just After Sunset
- Lisey's Story
- The Long Walk (as Richard Bachman)
- Mr. Mercedes
- Nightmares and Dreamscapes
- Nightshift
- The Plant
- The Regulators
- Roadwork (as Richard Bachman)
- Rose Madder
- The Running Man (as Richard Bachman)

**Not included on this list are two nonfiction books - Nightmares in the Sky and Faithful -
and several uncollected short stories.
As for the 70 books, I almost got there (hey, I've still got a few days) this year with a goal of 50 - so I figured, why not?
No new macguffolutions tomorrow or Christmas - but to all my dear readers, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
