My 2014 resolution to read the NYT best seller each week has (thankfully) drawn to a close. These pix show how they stack-up, so to speak.
First image has them arranged chronologically. Second is sorted by genre. (L to R): spy/murder "thrillers," creepy stuff by Stephen King, stuff that aspires to be actual literature (with a few successes), period pieces, chick lit, stuff that's probably good but would have required reading too many prequels, and (finally) absolute crap that I didn't look at twice.
So, WTG, America! I guess points are deserved for making an effort to read at all in this culture of short attention spans. But, I am very much looking forward to a 2015 full of books of my own choosing.
