I've decided to keep track of every book I read this year. I've been asked a number of times how many books I read in a year. I'm really not sure, so I'm keeping track. My guess is that I read about 150 books. Much of the count will depend on whether we take a real vacation and sit on our butts. I read a book a day that way.
Right now I'm reading the Inspector Wexford series by Ruth Rendell. The jury is still out on how much I like them. I like her twists, but I have guessed all of them so far. Which is not a bad thing, but we'll see. I'm not desperate to finish them, but I haven't thrown them down in disgust. A lot of books fall into this category for me. It's like I don't mind reading them.
Many people are trying to choose the best thing they read in 2009. I think without a list to remind me what I read that I forget basically every book before May. I know I read a bunch in February and April because of surgery for me and the birth of Mouse. I read 3 whole series I hadn't read before this year.
Happy reading. Here's to the list to come.
I'm going to try and keep track of mine, too. Great minds think alike. As far as my favorite read of 2009, oh my, I always forget, too. Maybe The Bookseller of Kabul.
