I’ve totaled up all of the books that I’ve posted about here this year, and assuming I don’t finish any more books in the next four days (no guarantees! Yep, I did after all.), this is my summary for the year:
Novellas: 4 (possibly more, because some of the short stories I read were quite long, but I haven’t counted those.)
Started and abandoned: 1 (Elantris. There are lots of other books I started and haven’t finished, but I do expect to finish them some day. I’ll post about them then.)
Comics: 2 (or 3, depending on how you count — and I’m only counting full-length books, not the flimsies.)
Books: 45 46
So, that’s nearly a book a week, not counting all of the other books I haven’t yet finished. Whew.

My New Year’s Resolution: Not to acquire any books or stories of any kind for all of 2010.
I’m giving myself a moratorium on getting books. I bought or have been given/lent so many books this year (and last year, and the year before that…), and I’m afraid I’ll never get through them all, if I keep getting new books at the rate I do. So, 2010 is my year to catch up. My goal is to keep posting these “recently read” posts as often as I remember, and to get through a large number of the books I already have. This includes a number of books that aren’t as easy as my usual sci fi/fantasy fare, like The Three Musketeer, and a ton of books that I’ve started and never finished. I may decide to restart some of those
