Books 2019

[schneefink]

Books I read this year: (~)50, a bit fewer than originally planned but not too bad. Most of them in February and July-September, and almost none since October, when I started my new job.

Stats: 16 books by men, 32 by women, 2 anthologies; a slightly bigger percentage written by men than last year. 6 by PoC, I think, as far as I'm aware. 1 book in German. 1 graphic novel.
Genres: 38 fantasy (39 if I count mythology), 7 SF, 4 romance with SFF elements, 0 other.

Favorite books read this year: "The Kingdom of Gods", "Children of Ruin", "Foundryside."
Favorite series: "The Inheritance Trilogy", "The Gardener's Hand", "Echoes of the Fall", "Winternight."
Books I most look forward to in 2020: Mostly I look forward to reading those I already have but haven't read yet, but I hope "Peace Talks," the next Dresden Files novel, will be good.

I'm only ~150 pages into book 3, but enjoying it thus far :) Will likely post a bit about it on my blog once I'm finally through it, so there will be gushing - I'm just savoring the story for now, like fine wine ;)
