meteordustIn 2009, I read 27 books:
20 were fiction
7 were non-fiction
18 were novels
2 were collections
0 were an anthology
14 were by authors I had read before
13 were by authors I had never read before
3 were first novels in a series
7 were other novels in a series
Highlights:
Doctor Who: The Writer's Tale by Russell T Davies and Benjamin Cook - A fascinating insight into both the making of Doctor Who and the creative process of Russell T Davies.
The Rivals: Chris Evert versus Martina Navratilova by Johnette Howard - Two legendary tennis players and their legendary rivalry.
The Time Traveller's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger - Intricately plotted and strangely compelling.
The Steel Remains by Richard Morgan - Epic fantasy meets Pulp Fiction.
Flashforward by Robert J Sawyer - Far better than the short-lived television series it inspired. Classic science fiction.
Children of Hope by David Feintuch - The last published novel in the Seafort Saga. Another intense visit to this universe.
