What shall I do to improve myself this year? Nada. I'm perfect.

*shrugs* My one and only actual resolution is to finish off at least ONE of my SV collections. That's all I expect from me this year.

YAY for book nerddom

[http://users.livejournal.com/_hallow_/]

I love that I have friends who keep book lists like I do. Not only do I feel like less of a freak, but it just makes me realize how awesome my friends are. :-) Though I have to admit, I am bitter than you read 189 books in 2007. A giant difference to my pitiful 28 (or is it 27? I have to check my list when I'm back in NYC). Though I haven't listed graphic novels or any submissions I read for work, which I guess took the place of real reading. The only manuscripts I count are those that are completely edited to the point where they will be the same as when they are eventually published (i.e. no more revisions, or very few, to be made). So I don't count the projects we reject and I read A LOT of those. But I still feel pitiful. :( Though I guess I should feel proud that I read three books in the past week so that I could bump my number up a bit before 2008. :-)

BTW, I also love that you read YA books. I really should send you more of our stuff. Did you like Fanboy and Goth Girl? I have it on my shelf (I stole it from the competetive titles shelf at work) but I haven't read it yet.

YA books make me happier than they should... and I still feel weird heading straight to the adult section if I don't hit the YA first. Oddness.

I give Fanboy and Goth Girl a definite thumbs up. :D It's been awhile, but I think it was one I read and kind of wandered around the house reading and bumping into things.

If it makes you feel better, obviously a good chunk of those are Sweet Valley books and they're read 'em over breakfast sorts.

It's kind of difficult to read while you're actually reading something else, so your job's got to cut into your reading time. Woe!

All hail the book lovers!
