A few book thoughts...

...but first a Happy Birthday wish to
kbuxton! May you get lots of cool books :)
I've finally gotten back into the swing of reading regularly. I doubt I'll get that many books finished by the end of the year, but at least these last few months will be better then the first ones. I went back through a lot of my old book posts and added some tags to make them easier to find in the future. Of course it is only after I finish that I hit on the idea of also tagging them with the author of the book. I'll have to save that for the next time I get bored and want to dig through old posts.
Because I never got a summary of my 2004 list, I'm putting it here under the cut (just so it will be available next time I go looking for it).
