I started writing this on the 31st, OK? Surely that counts for something (even if I didn't get around to finishing it yet!). Anyway, here is my belated goodbye to 2007's books. I haven't linked to my discussion of each one but just use the author tags on the side of my LJ if you want to see what I originally thought.

As with last year, these are fairly random categories and any book I read in 2007 is eligible regardless of publication date.

( The books )

Overall, it was a good year. I seem to have blogged less than usual about books which makes remembering them difficult. The preponderance of recently read books is what makes me worried about the validity of my awards! I might start a reading list this year as I've only read one so far.

ETA: I forgot one of the books that as I read it made me think this is one of the best books I will read all year. *facepalm* Privilege of the sword by Ellen Kushner. It was such a great combination of swashbuckling and romance!

Most belated ETA of all time: I forgot to add Geraldine McCaughrean's The white darkness even after being reminded by philia_fan. It took the Printz prize to shove me along - congrats to a fantastic book!
