Big Book Post (or what I read in 2009)

[inkvoices]

I remember this time last year lots of people were posting about whether or not they'd read 50 books in a year, or something like that. I had never really kept track of what I read, so I decided that I would try to for 2009. I still didn't bother to track non-fiction, poetry, or books that I reread, but the grand total was 78

Book lists make me salivate! And funnily enough both of our lists for last year were huge and not one time did we read the same book-- LOL

I'd never made a note of what I'd read before, so it was interesting. Ooo, have you posted your book list for last year? Books I have not read... Shiny.

Here's my 2009 Book List!

I love how I can tell just by glancing at that that you found an author you liked and then grabbed everything by them that you could get your hands on. Such a fangirl *grins*.

I've read The Time Traveller's Wife and The Hobbit, but nothing else on there. I have tried a book by Michael Crichton (I think it was called Fear if I remember rightly, featuring global warming) which was good and I read some LJ Smith when I was younger - she seems to be reappearing with all the Twilight hype. Stephen King, I am ashamed to say, I have only read his On Writing, and that because it was quoted in another book. I have a collection of his short stories on my reading pile I need to get into.

Out of your list, which were your favourite books? Or authors, if it's hard to narrow it down!
