Here's what I read this, my last and final semester at school.
We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families. -353 pages.
Voices from S-21: Terror and history in Pol Pot's secret prison. -159 pages.
Hitlers willing executioners: Ordinary Germans and the Holocaust. -483 pages.
Survivors: An oral history of the Armenian Genocide. -192 pages.
Century of Genocide: Critical essays and eyewitness accounts. -632 pages.
The Native American Holocaust. -200 pages.
Now, here's what I read, and still, God knows how, managed to win college.
The Shadow Rising. -1006 pages.
The Fires of Heaven. -992 pages.
Lord of Chaos. -1011 pages.
A Crown of Swords. -880 pages.
The previous 4 are by Robert Jordan.
The next 4 are by Brandon Sanderson, the guy who is finishing the former's Wheel of Time series.
Elantris. -615 pages.
Mistborn. -647 pages.
The Well of Ascension. -781 pages.
The Hero of Ages. -755 pages.
Watchmen, by Alan Moor & Dave Gibbons. -pages numbered by chapter, so I have no idea.
The point is, I am a phenomenal nerd, and it is a miracle I won college. Or managed to do anything else, for that matter. I read all of that and still managed to have a semblance of a social life, in addition to working 30 plus hours a week.
Woot!

Oooooooh, Hitler's Willing Executioners is awesome. I read that my freshman year of high school.
But that is a lot of reading. Kudos.
You read that your freshmen year of highschool? I feel like a stupid human being.
