    Do you guys have goals for yourself with the books you read?

Sometimes.

I just started Cryptonomicon instead of prioritizing finishing my other books, which is silly. But I've lagged behind my peer group for too long and Anathem is probably my favorite book of the century so far.

We read very similar books! Sci-fi, fantasy, with an occasional foray into nonfiction history and finance. I tend to add a bit of horror too, but I feel like I've had trouble finding good stuff lately.

Penguin just published a paperback of Thomas Ligotti's Songs of a Dead Dreamer, so if you haven't read it yet you can now get a copy that isn't ridiculously expensive.
