Tuesday, December 16, 2003So far this year, I have reviewed 253 books. Out of that amount, here are my favorite picks for this year...there were a lot of books that I loved. This list comprises of the absolute best of them, those marked with the star are the ones I felt were truly extraordinary. If a book I reviewed didn't make the list, it doesn't mean I don't really love it...there are just the ones I feel, right now, are the ones I'd take if I was going to mars to start a new colony. They are sort of kind of in order. *Ten Thousand Lovers, Edeet Ravel *Diary, Chuck Palnuick *Blankets, Craig Thompson *The monstrous Regiment, Terry Pratchett *The Angel With 100 Wings, Daniel Horch *Endless Nights, Neil Gaiman *Fudoki, Kij Johnson *Dragon Blood, Patricia Briggs *Days of the Dead, Barbara Hambly *Still Life With Crows, Preston and Childs *A Garden in Rain, Lynn Kurland *The outstretched Shadow, Mercedes lackey Heroes in the Dust, Jennifer Macaire Daughter of the Game, Tracey Grant Every Secret Thing, Laura Lippman Grass for his Pillow, Lian Hearne Tooth and Claw, Jo Walton Paragon Lost, Dave Duncan Jester, James Patterson Sleep Toward heaven, Amanda Eyre Ward Son of the Sword, J. Ardian Lee The Samari's Daughter, Sujata Massey The Vanished Man, Jeffrey Deaver Night Embrace, Sherrilyn Kenyon Sharpe's Havoc, Bernard Cornwell Sinister Pig, Tony Hillerman Jarka Ruus, Terry Brooks And in entirely different news, just in case you wanted to know, lady bugs don't crunch very much when you bite them. At least not nearly as much as I thought the would, anyway. I found this out when a particulalry inquisitive/suicidal lady bug crawled down my straw...and no, they don't taste like chicken.
