End of year public announcement

[bibliogramma]

Well, here it is, more than a week into 2009, and I’ve still got a longish list of books (17, to be more exact) that I read in 2008 but haven’t had time to write anything about. So, even though some of these were really good books that made me think a lot, I’m just going to post some very short comments on each of the remaining books from 2008, so I can have a chance at keeping up with blogging about my reading for 2009.

Part of what is unfortunate about this is that some of the books still uncommented on are books that I thought were simply amazing or deeply intriguing and wanted to write something significant about, but kept putting it off because I didn’t have the time to do the books justice. But that’s life.

So, over then next couple of days I hope to post some very short comments about the last of the 2008 books, and then do my end of year posts and start 2009 with the best intentions of not falling behind so badly in the coming year.
