2018 Reading List
2017 has been a shocking year for my reading. Other than comics, I've not finished reading a single book this year and I'm not at all happy about that. Admittedly, I've been busier drawing commissions than previous years so I've not been completely idle. That said, I don't think I've been disciplined enough to carve out time to read and I want to change that going into next year.
Below is a reading list of comics and books, some I've owned for years and just never got around to reading, others I've picked up more recently. By writing them down here in a public space, I hope it'll be a motivator next year.
The only updates I'll make to this list is either to strike-through completed books, or to add more in the coming weeks.
