Emergency Favorites of 2007 Addendum
I was compiling my favorites of 2007 late last night, and, amdist various other SNAFUs, I forgot to include my actual FAVORITE book of the year. I’m left with a hallow feeling, searching for answers. I was working from my Shelfari list rather than the elaborate spreadsheet that I use to track these things. How did my favorite book fall through the cracks? When my wife just asked me about it, I insisted that I had read it last year. She had to show me otherwise. Ye cats!
Anyway…Book of the Year: The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall. How much did I love this book? I own three editions.

It was a rather conspicuous absence! Glad to see the problem rectified and I’d like to thank you for pointing me towards this book earlier this year– I loved it too.

I had to wonder about this — and eventually assumed it must have come out in late ‘06 and wasn’t eligible. Anyway, thanks for the correction and do make an appointment to see someone about the “senior moment” you just had at age 40.

The worst part of the whole thing was insisting to my wife that I had read the book last year. Of course, she’s most always right, I should have recognized the error right then.
Frank: I need you to fold up your operation at TTT and come on over to be my full time editor.
