Media Stats for the Year
Books Read: 56--fewer than last year; life will do that. Twelve non-fiction, and, er, one fiction that wasn't SF or fantasy. Nineteen rereads, mostly Brust in preparation for Tiassa. Eleven authors that I've never read before, some whom I could probably have done without (Meyer) and some of whom I will take great delight in continuing to follow (Daley, Vinge). One book thrown against the wall. Five books failed the Bechdel test: some with good excuses (first person narrative by a gay male couple; focused on Thor and Loki), and some not so much (disappointing William Tenn short story collection, I am looking at you). Twilight passed, thus proving that the Bechdel test isn't everything, even from a feminist perspective.
Music: 6 new albums (also life will do that). Genres include filk, neoclassical, folk, and scientifically based Gregorian chant.
Movies: Seven. Which may be the most I've seen in a year since I graduated from college. One of them was even good.
TV: Seasons from four series. Doctor Who continues awesome; Being Human I am entirely done with
Other: The Star Wars radio plays, and several podcasts.
