HEY! This is the first New Year’s resolution I’ve actually stuck to, which is saying something. But, since I rarely make resolutions, it’s not saying too, too much. I even on occasion managed to blow my one-book-a-month plan out of the water, reaching a total of 20 books, plus a handful of graphic novel TPBs (Saga, I adore you!) and my monthly X-Files comic. Not too shabby.
