2010 Hugo Award Nominees
If I had to choose one genre that is my favorite it would be science fiction. Probably a third of the books I have read could be considered some form of sci-fi. I consider myself a casual fan not an obsessive one. I just can’t keep up with all the new stuff, so that may explain why I’ve only read one of books nominated for Best Novel and one for Best Novella.
I took a quick look at some of the reviews for the others and they seem interesting, especially The Windup Girl; not sure how I missed that one. Now I have a few more books to add to my wish list and hopefully someone else will discover them too.
