I might have to add “reading all past Hugo Awarded best novels” to my reading goal list which includes “read all Pulitzer prize winning novels.”
Oh, and no criticism for not having read Neuromancer unless you’ve read Synners.

Yesterday the downloadable packet of Hugo Award nominees was made available to members of Sasquan. That means that next week I should start posting book & story reviews. In the meanwhile I will continue with the movies and TV shows which are not part of the packet and available for digital purchase, already owned by myself, or free on Netflix or through Amazon Prime.

2015 Hugo Awards Maybe After All
I still plan to read books for the 2016 Hugo Awards and submit nominees. My husband (delightful man) has managed to convince me I can read all the nominees for 2015 before the votes are due in July. I’ve taken it as a challenge and plan to try. Here’s the list:
