April showers may bring May flowers but for us it's another month to log what you've read, pick things that really stood out, and see if we can make it to the end of the year!

http://thecomicforums.com/discussion/2723/the-2014-reading-list-thread-march#latestAs always - there are no real rules - just keep a list of what you read - singles or trades or whatever. I bold the top 5 or 6 books and pick a "winner" each month, but that's just me. I'm amazed at how much I've read this year already!
Above all - Have fun!
