Back to the standard, 50 books this year. This is especially gratifying since I only started on July 6th while waiting for the power to come back on after a hurricane. 50 books in just under 6 months is far and away the best I've ever done. Lots and lots of Sherlock Holmes this year, making up for having had none for several years. Lots and lots of much newer books this year, only 10% of my books were published more than 12 years ago.
RIP to the great David Stuart Davies, Sherlocking extraodinaire, who passed this year. He wrote three of the books I read this year.
