You may not be able to keep up, but at least try to make a decent showing". And every year I get excited when I increase how many I've read. And then you read 87 books. <br /><br />sigh. <br /><br />But seriously, that's impressive. I have to second Leonor on looking forward to this list each year. What's even more impressive is that I've heard of 3 books on that list. 3. Thanks for 85 potential leads...though I'm fairly sure I'll pass on anything involving a real housewife, unless it's literally a real, untelevised, housewife. <br /><br />Justin Bowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11918590992060850747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5239771833657791594.post-67968242190379596032015-01-02T07:47:35.669-05:002015-01-02T07:47:35.669-05:00The only thing I know about Roxane Gay is that if ...The only thing I know about Roxane Gay is that if you disagree with her she will eviscerate you on public media - or try to. (I made the mistake of thinking that Twitter was a social media that encouraged the sharing of individual thoughts and ideas, you see.) <br /><br />While I agree with the basic tenets of feminism, I really hate the sycophantic need to agree with everything a feminist says online. It borders on cultism. Apparently no one else is allowed to have any thoughts of their own. She is the self-appointed goddess of all things feminist.<br /><br />Meh. Whatever.<br /><br />Enjoyed your reviews, and the dizzying spiral towards Amazon reviewer stardom! What score do you have to achieve before the free books start arriving?Marchelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11201825708442679157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5239771833657791594.post-50522912788371283062015-01-01T22:10:01.224-05:002015-01-01T22:10:01.224-05:00this is hilarious:
