Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

Location: scotland		Welcome everybody to this new challenge for 2016.

I really enjoying mixing genre's throughout each year. I normally do half a dozen horror books and 3 science-fiction also 3 fantasy novels in a year. Plus a mainstream novel. Sometimes I surprise myself a manage to read more.

In general I ready slowly and like to immerse myself in a book so do not get through many, this is what I like and until I have more time I will continue to carefully choose what to read always mixing things up.

I look forward to comments on this challenge and also on books that are read as part of this.
