End of the Month Review: May, 2005
Started May 2 � Finished June 1, 2005. Posted 24 July 2005
- Worst book of the month: A tough one to pick, surprisingly, probably because I finished so few books this month. But I�ll go with Jerome Klinkowitz and John Somer, with their collection of essays on Vonnegut, called The Vonnegut Statement. I�m taking all my Vonnegut with me. I�m not taking this. As much as I love Vonnegut, that should say something.
- Best book of the month: Hy Bender, with The Sandman Companion. Because really, when a book about Neil Gaiman is better than the stuff written by Neil Gaiman that I read afterward, that�s gotta say something as well. I think it says �booger.� In a really high pitched voice.
As for the countdown, between May 2 and June 1, I...
- Read nine books. Boo.
- Paid $37.99 for the books that I read this month.
- Bought five more.
So for the year, I...
- Read 57 books
- Spent $232.02 on books that I read this year.
And I still can�t give you an accurate count with what is left. As of today, I have 16 left to read.
Last month, I had 17.
Whoops.
