Book Challenge 2013: A Year in Review

So far this year (I’m still finishing up two books), I’ve read 67 books — 17 more than my goal of 50!

Go to my Goodreads to see the details.

The longest book I read was Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare (although I’m pretty sure that was because there were more pages, and larger type, while other books like A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens may have been longer technically. Who knows. Math is not my forte).

21 books of the 67 were given 4 stars.

20,686 pages were read as of today.

The majority of the books read were published within the last 3 years.

The majority of the books read were young adult and gothic. Obviously — I had a thesis to work on!

What does your year-in-review book list look like? Are you surprised by anything? Did you meet your reading goal(s)?
