So, my previously-mentioned plan to read all my 2008-purchased books in time to make Hugo nominations did not come to fruition. I got through a few, read parts of a few others, and just guessed on the rest. The final list came out some time ago, and voting closes July 3rd. My current plan is to read as many of them as I can. Thankfully, I already have two of the novels completed, and I have read some of the shorter fiction as well.
For the novels, I will do individual posts to talk about them. For the shorter categories, I may lump them together in summary posts. For the non-fiction categories, I may also just have one humongous summative post.
The Aurora Awards (the Canada-only Hugo equivalent) are also open to voting now, but the period is open a few weeks longer and so I’ll see to that reading when the Hugo task is over and done with.
So, the coming month of posts may be literature-heavy, but I still have a bunch of posts about movies and concerts in the works, so I’ll try to push those through as fast as I can. I hope I can make some headway in this.
