Books I'm looking forward to in 2019. That usually means a sequel or new work by an author whose work I'm already familiar with. Occasionally it also includes a new or debut novel by an author that comes highly recommended.

Mission Statement (11/29/2017)

A blog for reviewing books, mostly sf/f. I started this blog as a way to encourage myself to read more, by setting aside an outlet for my reactions. I'm deeply interested in the writer's craft, and a running theme is picking apart how authors do the things that I like to read.

Things I like to read, in no particular order: interesting and meaty world-building, challenging existing social constructs, interesting forms and formats, short stories, metafiction, fancy prose.

All reviews crossposted to GoodReads.

Wayfinding

Tags are here to help you find things. I tag by:
- author/artist/studio/etc. (whichever creator(s) are applicable)
- genre (as best as I can determine)
- format (which is sometimes like length)
- series (when applicable)

Personal favorites are books I would take to a desert island where I would only be allowed to have the books I'd brought with me and no others.

Anticipated in 2019 are books I'm looking forward to reading, usually by authors I know and love, but sometimes not.
