December books
Saturday, 1 January 2011 13:48
Happy New Year, everyone! I will repeat what I said on twitter: may all your endeavours prosper and your beards never grow grey. ♥ This year I resolve to be a little braver, kinder and happier than I was last year, and also to clean the marzipan off my laptop's touch pad.
Here are the books I read in December! I sort of ran out of steam with writing about them, so some comments are more desultory than others.
( The Graveyard Book, The Janus Conjunction, Have His Carcase, The Far Side of the World, Delusions of Gender, Parallel Lives, The Siege of Krishnapur, I Shall Wear Midnight, Fahrenheit 451, Murder Must Advertise, The Raw Shark Texts, Ash )
Total number of books read in 2010: 103, or possibly 106, or 114, depending on how you count A Dance to the Music of Time. (ETA: wait, I read the fourth About Time book this year too! That absolutely counts. So make that 104, 106 or 115 books this year. :D)
Total number of books read so far in 2011: 1. It was Geraldine MacCaughrean's The White Darkness, and I recommended it: a tough, strange, involving, moving, wonderful book.
