March Madness Read-a-thon Update: Week 1

I'm one week into this challenge, and I've completed two of the books on my list: 

Joseph Conrad, Under Western Eyes

Philip Pullman, The Subtle Knife

I've added in Cather's My Antonia because I'm in the middle of teaching it--sure, I could have looked at my syllabus last week when I put the March list together and added it then--and will likely finish that today.  So I'm off to a great start on this challenge.  The big books, though, are still ahead of me.
