Books I've Read

(There are of course many more than those listed here, but I just recently started keeping a semi-chronological list. I've put the years in reverse-chronological order but within the years, items are more or less chronological. I'm sure there are fascinating patterns to be observed in my reading habits but I will not speculate as to what they might be. Book consumption went down once I started reviewing short fiction for Emerald City and stayed down while I proofed that and started proofreading for Subterranean Press.) You can also find me and my book reviews on Goodreads.
