So long to 2009. How’s the hangover preparation going, dear readers? Why not start off the new year with zen-chunks of our December 2009 reviews?

The Original of Laura
breaks dead master’s wish
you can punch out the notecards
part damn good, part sad
.
Leviathan
YA steampunk, woot!
airships are cooler alive
alas, needs more meat
.
What Happened to Anna K.
evokes ol’ Leo
repeatedly repeating
good but not that great
.
Buying a Fishing Rod for My Grandfather
people are selfish
solid stories from a great
explores disconnects
.
The Anthologist
strong voice carries far
learn a lot about poems
got to like Chowder
.
Best Books 2009
we made up more lists
sharing our favorites this year
read on next decade
