My last reading recap post for 2013 was in July (see post) at which point I had read 70 books so far that year. Shortly thereafter the stress of everyday life left me without the will to keep track of my reading (the last book I actively noted down was #71). I'm doing my best to reconstruct my books-read-in-2013 list (as seen below), but I am certain that I've missed more than a few (particularly library books). I will come back and edit this post as I remember books I've neglected to add to the list.
Posts on many of the books listed below will be forthcoming in the next weeks. Any my 2014 blog-related resolution is the same as my (failed) goal for last year: to post at least something about every book that I read this year,
preferably immediately or shortly after I either finish or officially
give up on it. Let's hope I'm more successful this year.
