he calls it geek homework

In response to Dr.Bombay’s post I’ll list all the hugo award winning novels I’ve read. Now, keep in mind, I actually had a goal to read them all at some point, (still do) so my average is no doubt a bit high.

I was surprised, actually, that I only had to look up one of them to see if I remembered it or not. I didn’t, but it was the 1980 winner, so I should have read it… maybe I just missed that one. (In case you can’t tell, I was trying to read them in order.)

I’ve read all the ones marked with a star. (Two stars mean twice, etc…)

[you’ll note, I’m missing eight of the fifty-one or so.]

  1. Hey, Grid. It’s Tiny. I’ve been out of the loop lately, owing much to the fact that we’ve been pregnant. Conceived during Fest, if you can imagine. :D

    Baby is here and pictures and such can be found back at the Naked Tiny. Expect to see me around more now-a-days.

    Blessings!
