I set some specific reading goals for 2018. My #OwnVoices Reading Resolution didn’t go quite as well as I had hoped in 2017, and I think a large reason is that I wasn’t as deliberate as I should have been. I made a list of books I wanted to read,…
Today we’re going to talk about diversity in books. Specifically, the OwnVoices movement. Most of us can agree that 2016 has been a year full of turmoil, trouble, and tears. As an historian, I watched the Republican candidate’s campaign with growing horror. I could draw so many parallels to totalitarian regimes…

Ganked from a lot of my friends, here’s the NPR’s Most Popular Sci-Fi & Fantasy novels meme. I voted, and of course am outraged that some of my favorites didn’t place very high (or even make the list. WTF where is Paks?!) but I’m pleased that I’ve read a bunch…
I haven’t actually read any books yet this year! I have joined Goodreads.com though. My profile is here if any of you feel like joining. larinzia has inspired me to try to keep a better list, but it probably won’t happen. LOL Books read in 2009 Gone for Good –…
