Books Read in 2015

THE RULES:

  • Books must be read cover to cover to count. No partial credit.
  • Re-reads count.
  • Audiobooks count. 
  • Books read for class (or, in my new life, for work) count.
  • Books may, of course, be read simultaneously.

Here's to another great year of reading! Please share your comments, reactions, and recommendations below!
