My books of 2017, including a poll

[nwhyte]

I read 238 books this year, more than last year and about the same as in 2013 and 2007, otherwise lower than usual (full numbers: 212 in 2016, 290 in 2015, 291 in 2014, 237 in 2013, 259 in 2012, 301 in 2011, 278 in 2010, 342 in 2009, 374 in 2008, 235 in 2007, 207 in 2006, 137 in 2005). Running the Hugos has that kind of effect. March, when

I envy you your reading time. The time I used to spend at home reading is now spent watching tv and films, and I don't get time I spend away from home to read any more.

You are continuing to catch up on books I read in my youth (Dunnett, Moorcock, Lessing) while I am well behind on the books of this century.

C'est la vie. I look forward to reading your reviews in 2018.

I almost clicked the Catullus collection though I don’t own it nor have as yet read it. But I have read (and own two editions of) the complete Catullus... in translation as well as the original late-Republican/Augustan Latin.
Odi et amo indeed.
BTW I only have about two thirds of my library catalogued on Library Thing; I sort of lost the will to continue. I update sporadically, but the number of new acquisitions outpaces the number catalogued.
