August 2021 in Retrospect: What I Read/Listened to/Wrote About

So I finished 30 books for the month, with a total of 9,998 pages (or the equivalent)–although 598 pages of that belongs to a book I’ve been chipping away at since January, so that number is arguable. Either way, those are some decent numbers. A 3.65 average rating is nothing to sneeze at. As usual, […]

Saturday Miscellany—8/28/21

Okay, I think I’ve got the whole reading and listening adjustment to the new job handled, now I’ve got to figure in blogging—which, as you may have noticed, isn’t going as well as it has in the past. Am sure I’ll figure something out, but that “to write about” pile is growing. If anyone knows […]

June 2021 in Retrospect: What I Read/Listened to/Wrote About

I don’t think I’ve ever been this delayed at assembling and posting one of these since I started, but it’s been that kind of week. It looks like June was a pretty good month overall. I finished 26 books, 8,102 (or the equivalent) pages, with an average rating of 3.8. Nothing to complain about there, […]

May 2021 in Retrospect: What I Read/Listened to/Wrote About

May 2021 saw me complete 22 books for 6,238+ pages or the equivalent (I don’t have a page count on one of the unpublished books yet, and there as a DNF in there, too, so that’s where the + comes in). Not my strongest month, but given things going on in Real Life, I’m pleased […]

January 2020 in Retrospect: What I Read/Listened to/Wrote About

January in sum: 17 books read, 4,453+ pages (two books—1 audio, 1 e-ARC—don’t have that information available), with an average of 3.8 rating (4 5-star reads!!). I’d have preferred a few more books in general and the ratio between print and audio favors audiobooks more than I’d like, but work’s been so heavy I haven’t […]

Looking back at 2019 for Books and the Blog

Programming Note: Over the next few days, I’ll be looking back over 2019—but trying to come up with some new material, too. I know a lot of people have already done that, but I’m a stickler—I can’t start doing this kind of thing ’til the year is over (for good reason, I read 3 things […]

Looking back at 2018 for Books and the Blog

As we kick off 2019, I wanted to take a glance back at 2018. 258 books read (plus comics, picture books, short stories, and the like that I don’t know how to count) — I exceeded my goal (nothing like exceeding an arbitrary number to boost the ol’ ego), 380 posts (short of my goal […]
