Oh, I borrowed Patricia Cornwell's Predator from Gail but after a few pages, decided that I'd not read the book before it, Trace, so stopped.
A book I'm still in the middle of is Robert J Sawyer's Mindscan, which I bought sometime in the latter half of last year and somehow didn't finish. Then there's Grant Charlton (of Outer Limits)'s Sean Russell's The Initiate (think I got halfway in September 2006), Gatherer of Clouds and World Without End also lying around my flat.
Oh, and Liz William's Banner of Souls. And Terry Pratchett's Hogfather, which would be a reread.
I actually had a three month dry spell end of last year: October, November and December.
I did read the various magazines that we receive at work (and despite almost a year of reading various women's titles, Men's Health is still my ultimate favourite. Still trying to get around to reading Popular Mechanics, though. Just haven't been in the mood). This is most unusual for me. Truly. It may have been due to a new hobby (Cute Guy at Gym [CGAG]) that I picked up beginning of October last year, who, combined with dancing and gymming and seeing other friends has occupied my time ;).
I have also read a few non-fiction books. Maybe I'll write about those another time. Maybe.
I do recall doing some rereading, however: Robin McKinley's Sunshine and some of Lois McMaster Bujold (LMB)'s Miles Vorkosigan books. I only discovered the latter series a couple of years ago, and they have become one of my favourites, so much so that I've pretty much been rereading them all every six months.
Just realised I've forgotten Tamara Siler-Jone's third and latest book, Valley of the Souls, which I bought–and promptly read—beginning of January.
