This post is a space where I will list all the books I read in the 2015 calendar year. I last did a list like this back in, oh, 2002 or 2003. Back when I was young and feckless. Now that I am in my mid-40s, and have more feck (“feckful”?), I am more likely to keep current on a project like this. And because the feck is strong in me, I will limit myself to only listing those books I actually read a substantial portion of; say, 50% or more. Not just books I buy or borrow from the library. And I will only list books I have not read before. Otherwise Cryptonomicon and The January Dancer would show up here three or four times.
Feck it.
