threemeninaboatI JUST FINISHED MY 500th BOOK OF THE YEAR!!!!!!!!!
John's gonna buy me a cupcake to celebrate.
No novels or traditional fiction made 5 stars this year. I am a non-fiction lady. Quite a few made 4 or 3 stars though including the Tunnels and Hunger Games series', and some short story compilations like Machine of Death.
I read many books on architecture and history, exploration and cooking, art and fashion and design. Many many books on home remodeling and design. Many graphic novels.
More than half were written by women.
I wished I hadn't started Sweep, it's not worth the energy.
I was very disappointed by Midnighters by Scott Westerfeld, The Death of Bunny Monroe by Nick Cave, The Best American Comics 2009, The Field Guide to Cookies, and almost all of the books about Slow Cookers.
Some Favorite Books of 2010 in no particular order:
Best Ugly: Restaurant Concepts and Architecture by Avroko
Extreme Hotels by Krols, Birgit
Ghostopolis by TenNapel, Doug
Wary Meyers' Tossed & Found: Unconventional Design from Cast-offs
XS Future: New Ideas, Small Structures by Richardson, Phyllis
Delilah Dirk and The Treasure of Constantinople by Cliff, Tony![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
