So it's the end of another year. Wow, that went by fast, didn't it? So lots of stuff went on for me. In January I started this blog. In fact my blogaversary should be coming up in a few days (I have to check and see what exact date). So here is the entire list of books that I read (sorry flist, this is quite long). A majority of them were pretty good, a few duds here and there but for the most part, I think this was an excellent year for books. Please note, some of the early ones are not reviewed here as I read them before I started this blog.
