This is the fourth and final installment of Auntie Nettie's Reading List for 2008. (Links to the first three can be found here.) If you are just finding the blog, please note that this list was maintained mainly so that I could remember what I've read this year. The record does not fully represent me or all of my interests, so don't judge my reading habits. While there have been periods when I seem to focus on one subject matter or author exclusively, that's due to my obsessive habits of wanting to read everything in a series straight through, rather than waiting the months or YEARS that it may take an author to publish new material.
Also, although I could really use the revenue, and as a librarian by training, I'm used to doing readers advisories, I am staying away from making too many recommendations or providing links to major on-line catalogs or retailers.
This is just a list.
Got it?
That being writ, do go forth and read ... I don't care if it's chick lit, the comics, a "How to" or "Dummies" book, the back of the cereal box, or a magazine. Just read something!
