bluegargantuaHey,
So I read about 45 books or so this year. Not too bad considering that two of them were from the Malazan Empire series and thus over 800+ pages in length.
My top 3 Books for the Year:
The Gone-Away World by Nick Harkaway.
Implied Spaces by Walter Jon Williams.
Gentlemen of the Road: An Adventure by Michael Chabon.
But there was a lot of good stuff this year. Hot on their heels were Matter, The Stars My Destination and Pirate Sun.
In the non-fiction category, the only thing that really stood out was Bloody Confused: A Clueless American Sportswriter Seeks Solace in English Soccer.
So if you're bumming around for something to read, give those a shot.
