The Year of Books: Introduction

2011 has certainly been a year of reading for me.  I’ve spent more time reading this year than probably any other year of my life (discounting the academic reading that I had to do in college and grad school).

For the past several years, I’ve been tracking and reviewing the books that I read on Goodreads.  If we aren’t already friends on Goodreads, then you should join me there and we can see what each other is reading!

  In 2011, according to my Goodreads stats, I read 141 books.

One hundred and forty-one.

141!!  That’s ridiculous!

That’s an average of a book read every two and a half days.  I’m not exactly sure how I read that many but I did.

So over the next couple weeks, I’m going to share with my most favorite books of the year.  I’ll share the reviews of all the books that I gave a “5” to (Goodreads’ top rating) along with the names of all my “4” ratings as well.

Even though I read so many books this year, I still have 230 books on my “To-Read” list.

I will never finish reading.

Hooray!
