Read All Over

I've taken this out again. I keep going back and forth on whether I like having a book list here. There's a large part of me that wants "credit," in some ineffable form, for all the books I read, like this is some elementary school Read-a-thon and I'm going to win a trip to Canada's Wonderland at the end of the summer. But of course, I never keep up with updating the list, so it looks like I haven't read a new book in months. Jeez. What did nerds stress out about before the internet?
