I can't remember what I did this year, but since I track my reading, I'll share some highlights from my year in books. This goes from December 1, 2007 to November 30, 2008. (November has 30, right?)

I read, or at least got most of the way through 98 books.
82 of them were written or edited by women.
20 were by people of color.
12 were by queer authors or had strong queer characters.
10 were non-biography non-fiction.
19 were biographies or autobiographies.
17 were children's or young adult books.

Highly recommended (in the order I read them)...

You may have noticed that I've added book and zine reviews to this site. And the occasional event. If you're really only in it for the blog posts, you can use this feed instead of the main one. Of course I'm only talking to RSS users.

I wrote in my zine that I have a love/hate relationship with the New York Public Library (NYPL). A friend (who works there) asked my why, which I did, on Facebook. But I thought the discussion might be worthy of exposure beyond Facebook's walls.
