According to Goodreads, I read 26 books last year. There may be more that I didn't log before I started using Goodreads to keep track of my books, but if so, not many more. So about a book every two weeks. Not great, but not terrible. Until you consider that I already have 69 books on my to-read list for this year. The SFF year-end lists have contributed heavily to my backlog: Best of 2015, Best of Upcoming in 2016, etc, as did winning a fantastic book bundle through Clarkesworld Magazine - The Vandermeer Winter Tape Mix, which included a number of books I'd heard about and new ones I'm excited to explore. Add to that the number of folks I'm privileged to know, personally or peripherally, who have new books recently released or coming out soon, and my list keeps growing. Below, are just a few I'm looking forward to from favorite authors, books by authors new to me that are getting good buzz, and books out soon from folks I know.
And here are just a few links to some of the lists for recommended books:
