So I filled out my list - all 27 - but much of what I plan to read are novellas. I acquired this legendarily awesome anthology book, "The Super Hugos." It's supposed to be the best of the best Hugo winners. I think I believe it! The collection includes:

Sandkings by GRRM
The Bicentennial Man by Asimov
Enemy Mine by Barry B. Longyear
The Star by Arthur C. Clarke
The Big Front Yard by Simak
"Repent, Harlequin!" Said the Ticktockman by Harlan Ellison
The story that started Pern, Weyr Search by Anne McCaffrey
Neutron Star by Larry Niven
I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream by Ellison
Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

Interestingly, the novel of Flowers for Algernon is up for my SF Masterworks list this year so I'll be reading that as well. For that reason, and because I read the story before in high school (and because I didn't have room for all of them) I'll be counting the novel towards the challenge but not the story.
