Since I'm so far behind on my reviews -- the stack on my printer stands at 29 as of Friday -- I'm going to temporarily abandon my aim to be comprehensive and polished, and instead embrace quick daily capsule reviews for about the next month. We'll see how that works out in practice, but I'll begin with a clutch of graphic novels that need to get back to the library soon.
There are two possible failure modes: that I write just as long as I ever did, since being shorter is more difficult; or that I do this for a day or two and then quickly fall off the wagon, never to speak of this again, and give up on reviewing some or all of the stuff I've read this year. But, however it happens, I need to get rid of that stack of books before it falls over and kills me. So here goes.
