Books Read 2014

Here's my annual list of what I've read in the past year.

2014 busted my previous best total of 39 books read in 12 months, but then spending a few weeks recuperating from 2 ops and being banned from doing anything physically demanding is bound to boost the total.

Or perhaps this is a sign that I should be doing something else with my free time… like er… decorating or gardening or… Nope, I think I’ll stay on the sofa reading.
