A tradition unlike any other! Time for the April reading thread.
The rules as laid down by the great and powerful Torchsong are simple:
Log everything you've read this year. Just edit your existing post or you (and we) will get confused trying to keep up. At the end of each month I'll start a new thread and you can pick a "winner" from your favorite books. You can focus on just trades (which is usually what I do), or just write about the good stuff you've read.
