The Nora Roberts meant flying to/from Fencon. Lots more Seanan and tor.com goodness, and giving myself credit for fanfic read and enjoyed. I'd rather turned away from romance novels in recent years, after the epic binges of a few years ago, but read & enjoyed a few this month. Getting to some new mysteries means progress on that to-be-read wall. It seems a healthy mix of genres overall.


And now I'm all caught up, ready for adventures in the new year.

Lots of re-reads, with most of the new reads being mysteries. I read more mysteries than science fiction nowadays, but emotionally still identify primarily as a science fiction fan. [Their conventions are cheaper, look more fun, & come with filk!] Tor.com is a fabulous source of stories, novellas, & book recommendations! Young adult also gets a look-in now & again. There's lots of Mark Reads action; sometimes he gets commissions to just read books, as well as read books & do commentary; hence that particular binge.
