Seriously, if you haven't watched either 'Daybreak' or 'The Witcher' (both on Netfix), you really should cos they are so good!

Not sure if I'll keep posting these lists here going forward. This place feels really weird now. Who knows what the future will bring? Happy New Year!

See you all next year!

Now for something new.

This year I made the decision to keep track of every single episode of every show I watched over the course of the year. Yes, I am a crazy person. I stuck with it and the result is a ridiculously huge list that I will only link to because it would push me over my posting limit. Feel free to check it out if you're interested in that sort of thing.

Easiest way to find out if I watched the same thing you did I reckon is Ctrl+F. It will save you scrolling through the whole thing.

Enjoy!

Bit of a poor effort this year but not the worst I've ever done.

As you can see, I started properly reading Comics. I'd love to read more only my OCD says I have to start at the beginning and let me tell you, those real old Essentials are quite tricky to get & some are stupidly expensive. That Essential Captain America up there is a prime example. Almost as rare as hen's teeth but totally worth it.

As I mentioned last year, I was hoping to finish 'The Complete Sherlock Holmes'. Well, it didn't happen. I met some great people while playing video games and ended up playing into the wee hours, so I wasn't reading it in the quiet of the night. As of right now, I am near the end of 'The Hound of the Baskervilles'. Here's hoping I can add it to next years list.
