Books in 2012

95 books in 2012. I had hoped for 100, but life was busy, and I didn’t get through a few I was expecting to at the end of the year. Vacation ended up being more family time, with less time for reading, which was fine.

Quite a few re-reads this past year, which was fun. A few series extended, and I went back and took in earlier books to enjoy the full experience of the new novels. I discovered some new authors, and read a lot of science fiction this year. All good, though I expect to read less, and write more, in 2013.

The last few years were:

  • 2012: 95
  • 2011: 69
  • 2010: 80
  • 2009: no idea
  • 2008: 47
  • 2007: 65
  • 2006: 68
  • 2005: 112
  • 2004: 59
  • 2003: 42
  • 2002: 47
  • 2001: 43
  • 2000: 49
  • 1999: 49

That’s a lot of books, 68+ in the last decade, if I think 2009 was similar to 2008. However it’s still a drop in the bucket to how many books are out there, and how many I would still like to read.
