I did not manage to post this back in the approximately three days of internet access I had in January. So now, super late: Books I Read In 2010!

I read 118 books, which is a bit less than usual, but then I had a pretty busy year, including comprehensive exams, which lead to me reading a lot more articles and fewer books. I failed at [livejournal.com profile] 50books_poc, reading only 34 books by people of color. I also failed at my goal to read 50 books about archaeology, ending at 22. I did read 56 books by women, so, uh, that's good. In general, I've been reading a lot more non-fiction than I used to, and when I do read fiction, there's a lot of historical stuff and less fantasy/sci-fi (though not entirely!). I also read a lot of really weird, random shit last year, due to getting a Nook and reading whatever ebooks I could find easily. Feel free to ask me for my opinion on any title! I love talking about books.

For 2011, I've kind of vaguely been continuing to attempt the [livejournal.com profile] 50books_poc challenge, although I'm clearly way behind in posting reviews. I also decided to try and read fifty books about India, more specifically, which I'm making more progress on. Finally, I'm still trying to read a good amount of archaeology books, though there is no way I'll manage to get to fifty this year.
