though i think i forgot to keep track july through sept or so, so

no temptation to poll mine, the amount of low-quality skiffy is embarrassing.

only read 'visit from the goon squad' out of this list and i ain't voting for it.

Let's post our librogaphies here and at least pick a best-and-worst then. I'll sort mine out later.

Goon Squad is my only coincidence too. I liked it but it'd be a pointless vote I feel.

Only read Goon Squad and The Last Tycoon. I'd vote for Goon Squad! (ignores ledge's lowering stare). But more importantly this is reminding me to keep a proper bloody log of what I read this year. I seem to be able to recall reading only two things. Now I know I tailed off a bit at the end of the year, but I don't think things were quite that lenten.

i also read the two spiotta, 'play it as it lays' (lol ilx) and 'the pale king' this year. of those id vote for 'stone arabia' p easily. of all the stuff on the list ive read itd be either 'prep' or the snl oral history i think

This mania for making lists of books is alien to me. Aimless wanders as a cloud, you might say.
