In the end I didn’t quite make my goal of six, but am very happy with the 5 I did read. My final selection was an audiobook, English Majors, which I thought was just OK — maybe I would have liked it more if I actually were an English major! My favorites I read this year were definitely Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores and The Bookman’s Tale. There are so many great books about books out there! Each time I read one, I get that warm and fuzzy feeling of being among like-minded, book-loving souls. I will continue to read this kinds of books for many years to come 🙂

Christine,
I didn’t make my goal either, but I did have fun! I think my favorite books were Book Riot’s Start Here: Read Your Way Into 25 Amazing Authors, Robin Sloan’s Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore, Matthew Norman’s Domestic Violets, and Donna Tartt’s The Secret History. I still have plenty on my shelves for 2014, although I decided not to (formally) host the challenge again (for a variety of reasons).

I definitely want to read Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore at some point — it sounds really good! That’s OK about not hosting again — happy reading in the new year 🙂
