Books, Books, and more Books

Yes, I read a lot.

Mostly I read science fiction and fantasy, with a heavy sprinkling of mysteries and queer romance.

I love recommending books! You can find my five star reads list over on The Storygraph, which is a tool I can’t say enough good things about.

NPR did a great top 100 Science Fiction & Fantasy Books list in 2011. In 2021, they added a top 50 in the last decade .

I’m a huge fan of libraries, and was heavily involved in the one in our last town.

I may spend more time reading on Libby / Overdrive than on paper these days! My general rule is to BUY books when I want to read them AGAIN – otherwise they would be taking over my house and my savings account!

Here’s the flowchart version of the top 100 (there used to be an interactive version, but it seems to be lost to time.)
