I just finished reading the first volume of the Uptown Girl comic anthology, Begin the Begin (200 pages), which I will be reviewing this month for the Uptown Neighborhood News.  (How did I come up with this book to read?)  Not to spoil the energy for my review, it’s exceedingly cute and an overly accurate depiction of my neighborhood.  If you want to know what it’s like to live in Uptown Minneapolis (a hipster neighborhood, for those of you out-of-state), pick up this book!

Total For 2008: 2350 pages
Genres: Memoir (2), Essay (1), Graphic Novel (1), Non-Fiction (2), Poetry (3), Comic Book Anthology (1)
