Today ends the year of my book records. Ever since high school, I've been keeping track of what books I've read. For reasons lost to the mists of time, the "year" is August 15-August 14. As it happens, DH and I are in a reading competition this year, though we're competing on the solar year since that's the cycle his list is on. (Yes, I do own stock in Barnes & Noble. Why do you ask?)

Perhaps because of that competition, or perhaps just through sheer luck, my grand total for the year is 73 74. This is the best number out of the last six years, since I switched from paper to electronic record keeping. The next highest number was in 03-04 (when I did not have a full time job) and managed only 60 books.

For the morbidly curious, ( here is the complete list )

Edit: Caught a book that I'd somehow left off the list. That's been fixed.
