Another 21 works reviewed, a plurality of which were SF novels. My total works reviewed to date is 2856, which means I should roll the odometer over to 3000 on Friday, August 8, 2025. I should plan ahead for that.

I managed to review 21 works in a month with room for only 20 reviews but my ambitious arc-tracking project was nobbled by changes at Netgalley.

Another month, another (almost) two dozen book reviews. Big month for oligarchy. Hope representative democracy does better in November.

Another month, another 23 books read. As promised, I was able to tackle some longer works I put off during dance season. The review that attracted the most attention by far was of Farnham's Freehold, something I will keep in mind.

How is 2024 a third done already?

April saw my usual twenty-plus reviews and twice as many award nominations as March. Clearly, this is a geometric progression I should expect to continue.

Full stats here.

In which I read 22 books, oligarchy pulls ahead of representative democracy and I am nominated for a Hugo.

Thrill! To the heat of monthly statistics! I wish Strange Horizons still did their annual count. Blasting past all the other review sites numbers was fun.

I carefully set this up so it would not fall on the same day as the Patreon boost... and then forgot it existed.

The yearly stats grind begins again. This will be the easiest month for me to run the numbers.

As is my custom, I end the year with a thrilling recitation of statistics.
