Books Read in 1993
I'm pretty sure my brother and I are the only people who give a crap about these lists, but I like the idea of having them posted here, in case my precious hard copies get burned or, as seems more likely, become the unfortunate victims of a termite infestation and/or an accidental urination event.
Anyway, just wanted to remind the rest of you that I usually post these lists just after I've posted another, hopefully more substantial, entry, so be sure to, you know, browse beyond the headlines.
Here's Bill's list. He's already up to 1996, so I need to catch up. I'm totally going to crush his average once I get around to posting my lists from the mid-80's, Doctor Who novels notwithstanding.

That's the Peter David who wrote Hulk! I remember him.
Peter David writing Hulk is OK. Peter David writing novels sucks.
