Inspired by Steven Soderbergh's annual list, and also just curious to get a big picture view of what my brain is digesting, I started recording my culture diet in September, 2015. Below are the results.
Days with "--" signify nothing was "completed" on that day; usually means I was reading the next finished book on the list.

For many reasons, I have decided to make 2016 The Year of No White Men. I will not be reading anything with a white male as the primary authorial voice. Check out my list here to see what I'm hoping to get through.
