2022 Reading summary
Jan. 2nd, 2023 02:35 pmAfter 2 pandemic years of just not reading very much (Yeah, pandemic close-in should have been great reading time, but I just didn't seem to have the focus for it. I ended up playing a bunch of computer games, e.g. Stelaris, Master of Orion (I & II), Master of Magic, and Europa Universalis 4, instead) where I finished 35 books in 2020 and 41 in 2021 (about half were in November and December of 2021), my reading revitalized at the end of 2021.
This year I completed 83 books, with a generally highly diverse authorship profile. (6 by cis-straight-white-males, though the books by James S. A. Corey are a bit tricky to categorize, as that is a pseudonym for two people.)
Some of the highlights of the year include: The Newsflesh trilogy by Seanan McGuire (as by Mira Grant), _Pet_ by Akwaeke Emezi, _Rosewater_ by Tade Thompson, _Return of the Trickster_ by Eden Robinson (the conclusion of the Trickster trilogy; I read the 2nd as well, but did not find it quite as strong as the 1st and 3rd), _Quarter Share_ by Nathan Lowell and _Legends and Lattes_ by Travis Baldree. The last two are just nice... full of good people do good things for other good people, and it turning out well.
