I read TWO books in January. Boy am I slow.

that's a lot of books :) I totaled 52 books last year. I'm keeping track on goodreads.

There are worse things to be addicted too :)

January was a bit on the high end of book reading. I would say February will be lower, but the snow days are perfect reading days. :)

Is there a way to see what you read in one year on GR? I have searched and can't seem to find it.

What I did was made a separate "bookshelf" named read in 2010, read in 2011, etc. When I mark a book as being read I also put it on the shelf for that year. Does that make sense?

That totally makes sense. Duh! You're a genius. Thanks. :D
