42) The Farthest Shore: The conclusion of the Earthsea trilogy. I decided to read this immediately after Tombs in hopes of staying in the cadence of LeGuin's work, and it was successful - I tore through this one, enjoying it quite a bit. It also helped that I finally internalized that these are a series of coming of age novels, which helped.
