And another year is (almost) over.

I didn't do too well on resolutions this year. I only kept one - breaking up with Smallville. Pretty much failed on the less-junkfood and more sleep ones. I read 77 books this year, about 10 more than last year, so that's an improvement.

Below the cut is list of the books I read in 2008, in the form of a poll.

[Poll #1323133]


If I had to pick my top five they would be:

1. Mistakes Were Made (But Not by Me) by Carol Tavris
   
2. Superstition: Belief in the Age of Science by Robert L Park
   
3. Half a Crown by Jo Walton
   
4. Torchwood: Almost Perfect by James Goss
   
5. Abortion & Life by Jennifer Baumgardner
   

Resolutions for this year:

1. Read more good novels so my top five list won't be so dominated by non-fiction.
   
2. Improve my lifestyle (gets sleep, diet, and exercise in one resolution, so if I break it I only break one.)
   
3. Learn a new skill.
   
4. Declutter my home.

I'm afraid I've read none of these. Although I did start in Novik's series this December (and got sidetracked, yes).
