Something of concern:
As I do, when I finish a book, I add it to my yearly list and then go to Goodreads to leave a review.
At least twice this year, I had a Gandalf moment:
I know it happened with Tom Holt's "Who's Afraid of Beowulf," which I started this year then noticed I'd already reviewed it on Goodreads, and Brother Andrew's "God's Smuggler."
I'm not sure what that means aside from senility being inevitable, but there we are.
