Books Read 2008
Every year my little group of friends share our lists of the books we’ve read over the course of the previous year. Below is my list from 2008. Many of these books showed up as Danger Gal profiles, so if you’d like additional information on them, check out the Danger Gal archives. For a bit more book-geek fun, peruse my reading lists for 2006 and 2005. And while you’re at it, my friend Berty is the first of my tribe to get his list out.
What’s on my list for 2009? I’m still working through Susan Grant’s backlist, as well as William Gibson’s. Also, I tried to get Linnea Sinclair’s SHADES OF DARK in for 2008, but wasn’t able to. I’m still engrossed in Lara Adrian’s Breed trilogy and just picked up the latest. I also have John’s Scalzi’s AGENT TO THE STARS and GHOST BRIGADES, both of which I’m roughly halfway through. There are at least 15 books sitting next to me right now begging to be read, so I’ve got my work cut out for me.
You can keep tabs on my progress through my Shelfari page. Also, there are a few of us who enjoy talking about Science Fiction Romance in our very own SFR Shelfari forum as well.

Wow, that’s an impressive list. I’m too ashamed to list out the meager few I managed to read.
I second the “Wow.”
Not sure where you find the time to read so much! This year I am forcing myself to turn off the computer and open more books.
*g* Love your list… and am honored to be on it 😉
My goal this year is to read a LOT more! I get so caught up in the writing, my favorite pastime falls by the wayside. But not this year…
Thanks a lot for the list, sometimes it’s hard to find good inspiration, and it’s a lot easier when it’s recommended by another female. Often when men recommend Fantasy, you end up with some rather interesting reads, not necessarily appealing to me…
