Books 2007
In the beginning of 2007 I was reading enough to break any record I had for most reading in a year, but I think the amount of raw documentation I read for work just shut down any hopes of even getting as much read as last year. The total stood at 14,219 pages. 60 books with an average of about 237 pages and an average rating of 7.49, my lowest average rating since 2001. 172,480 pages since I started keeping track in early 1994 (493 books). I added a bunch of graphic novels this year, which might seem like cheating, given all the images and relatively less text, but it took me just as long to read one as a normal novel, so they've been included. I strongly recommend The Sandman and The Watchmen - they were wonderful. Most hated this year: Dracula Unbound, Humble Pie and The Art of Mingling. Best reads: War With the Newts, The Book of Lost Things, The Genocides, and anything by Spolsky.
