Here’s my placeholder for 2017 books read.
We’ll see how I do. This year I’d like to read some of the massive number of unread books around my apartment. I keep on buying new releases, or getting digital books, when I have hundreds of unread books around my apartment that have been on my “to read” list for years. Time to get at those.
I have pretty much given up longer book reviews on here, but I’ve been trying to make more comments and “reviews” on Goodreads, so I’d also like to keep that up, and maybe even post a few of those shorter reviews over to here.
