Same here! I tried a whole bunch of brand new things and I've discovered so many authors I'm going to read again and again; Margaret Atwood, C.J. Cherryh, Ursula K. Le Guin and Andre Norton, to name but a few, all of whom I've been meaning to read and not quite gotten around to. I've also discovered some great one-offs (Fool's War, Brown Girl in the Ring, Becoming Alien and All the Birds in the Sky, for example) and an occasional stinker that I didn't enjoy (Sara Douglass and Jennifer Fallon; sorry to any fans of theirs, but they are definitely not my cup of tea.) This year I'm planning to read James Tiptree Jr. Robin Hobb and Ann Leckie (just off the top of my head.)

I'm in for Women Grand Masters, by the way. Maybe I'll go ahead and make that one myself, if you don't, Dlw28. There have been five, and they have all left us an amazing body of work, and I'm intending to chew into C.J. Cherryh's work anyway. You would have to allow re-reads though, so I could dig into my Anne McCaffrey books again. Thanks for this!
