2017 book census

[roadrunnertwice]

Ah, right, and it's January now, isn't it? Here's one particular way to divide up the things I read in 2017.

• Book-length prose works, female authors: 21 (previous year: 25)
• Book-length prose works, male authors: 10 (previous year: 9)
• Book-ish-length comics or other works, female creators: 8 (previous year: 9)
• Book-ish-length comics or other works, male creators: 4 (previous year: 2)
• Book-ish length comics or other works, mixed-gender or unknown team of creators: 5 (previous year: 4)

That count is silent on race and countless other axes, and it's sometimes misleadingly silent on divergence from a binary gender model. But it's what I've tracked in years gone by, and I still think it's interesting to see how my ratios move year-to-year.
