2015 - Books Read

I just hit my goal of 100 books for 2014.  Not sure if I'll have too much time to read this year, but I went ahead and set the goal at 100 again.

By now, you should know what all this means, but * denotes ebooks, date is date finished, the books are in reverse order with most recent read on top, and genre is self-explanatory.  =o)

  1. Well done. I'm bragging here but I topped out at 214 new books read and 54 re-reads. I've promised myself that I'll try to diversify my reading this year and try other stuff. Recommendations are always welcome. I'm lucky enough not to have your distractions and can read whenever I want, bar working!

    1. Brag away, Fran! That's awesome. The world needs more readers like you. Are we friends on Goodreads? We totally should be. I don't recommend a lot of books here, but everything I read has been reviewed (or at least starred) over there. (https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1202018-b-e)

    2. I'm a bit out of it on Goodreads because I don't understand how to use it. A user guide might be helpful. According to my profile I'm still reading Tulle Death Do Us Part by Annette Blair and I read that over a year ago. I just can't see how to change it and because I read so many books, I'd spend half my time updating. Maybe I need to go back and look at it again.....
