Update time.  I finished A Passage to India.  I definitely didn't hate it.  But I really feel lukewarm about it.  It took me a long time to even build up slight interest in it.  The first third of the book I slogged through slowly.  It was a nice story.  Enjoyable.  But as a whole, it didn't thrill me.
Next up:  An American Tragedy by Theodore Dreiser
Bonus book:  My sister just brought me the His Dark Materials Trilogy by Philip Pullman (which is actually 3 separate books that only count as one) and it turns out I have read them before!  I just didn't remember.  It was a long time ago (probably when I was in college) but I do remember enjoying them (there is no way I would have read all 3 books if I didn't enjoy them somewhat.  At the time I wasn't trying to finish huge lists of supposedly great fiction).
Brings my count to 37 books read, 85 to go.
