2018
January: New beginnings
New authors, new books, new series, new genres, new places.
February: Tidying up
Getting as much finished as I can; reading shorts I’ve been meaning to get to.
March: New & old
Catching up on 2017/2018 sff (in time for Locus noms!) combined with reading older (pre-1990) books.
2017
June: LGBTQIA+ reads
I interpreted this as either engaging well with (central) queer themes or anything authored by a queer person (afaik).
July: Shorts
Anything up to novella length with emphasis on short stories.
August: Paper
Books and comics of which I had physical copies.
September: Hyped/recced
Following recommendations wherever they took me.
October: Gratitude
Gifts from friends, publishers of from myself; books I feel grateful for.
November: Mystery
Crime, thriller, secrets.
December: Tying up loose ends
Books I’d been meaning to get to, books I’d started ages ago, books I’m behind on.
