*sticky post*
I wanted to see if I could surpass my book list of 2008, and yes, so far I have far exceeded that goal. I've kept track throughout this year in a notepad, and had been meaning to post the list here. As I am attempting to get back into the swing of online life again, I am posting what I have read thus far.
I am not doing recommends this year. If I've read something truly horrendous, then I will note it with a "not worth your time."
