Meanwhile, on the bookshelves at chez Grac...
I'm reading a lot of books this year. This should come as no surprise to anyone at all.
I've signed up for the book challenge over on Booklikes and Goodreads, though I'm actually posting reviews of some of what I'm reading on Booklikes if anyone is interested... Anyway, 100 books and I've read 62 so far. This does not include books I started but didn't finish, but does include some graphic novels (which you may feel is cheating?)
Best books this year (so far) have been:
The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by NK Jemisin
All of the Vorkosigan books (I'm up to A Civil Campaign) by Lois McMaster Bujold
Redemption in Indigo and The Best of All Possible Worlds by Karen Lord
The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison
The Cloud Roads by Martha Wells
The Bullet-Catcher's Daughter by Rod Duncan
Fever Season and A Free Man of Colour by Barbara Hambly
City of Stairs by Robert Jackson Bennett
Range of Ghosts and Shattered Pillars by Elizabeth Bear
The Humans by Matt Haig
Fortune's Pawn by Rachel Bach
Foxglove Summer by Ben Aaronovitch
Feast of Souls by CS Friedman
The more perceptive among you may realise that many of these books are the first in a series or trilogy, which means I have lots more (hopefully equally good) reading ahead of me! :)
