Books: Year-End
Goodreads sent me a lovely little email saying "Congratulations, you read seven books this year!" and I said "What the hell? I read way more than seven books this year."
A little poking around revealed a few things:
1. I am absolutely terrible about putting books I've read into Goodreads.
2. I am not making up for it by posting reviews of books I've read here, or anywhere else.
3. I am much better at buying books than at reading them. As part of trying to clean things up on Goodreads, I went through my Kindle purchases, and realized that I have a LOT of catching up to do. Erm, oops.
However, I have ThingsThatMustBeDoneBeforeTheEndOfTheYear (tm) and I'm a little over-scheduled this week, so I really can't afford the time it would take to sit down and figure out everything I've read. What I got, in the hour that I gave myself, in no particular order:
* Wicked Appetite and Wicked Business by Janet Evanovich
* Tapped Out by Natalie M. Roberts
* A Tangled Web by Mercedes Lackey
* Chuck Cave and the Vanishing Vixen by C.C. Blake
* The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch
* Queen Victoria, Demon Hunter by A. E. Moorat
* The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back by Sariah Wilson (which actually did get a review, so go me!)
* First Truth by Dawn Cook (and I read all four books in this series, so I assume that fact that the first one is in 2013's list means that all four of them should be)
* Beauty and the Werewolf by Mercedes Lackey
* Party Crashers By Stephanie Bond
* New Amsterdam and Garrett Investigates by Elizabeth Bear
* Wine in my Sippy Cup by Deborah Dove
* Ever After and Into the Woods by Kim Harrison
* Just a Geek by Wil Wheaton
* Engraved on the Eye by Saladin Ahmed
* The Rook by Daniel O'Malley
* A is for Alibi by Sue Grafton
* The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
* The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
With any luck, having the list will prompt me to post reviews of these someday. Or at least help me remember to clean up the Goodreads list.
