This year Goodreads even told me how many pages I read. Do you think they were copying me from last year? I did list all my pages and listening time in last year's book list. I will have to redo it, though because they didn't differentiate between books I read and books I listened to. So, I may already know how many books I read, but I don't yet know how many pages and hours. Shall we see?
Also, once again I'll link to any reviews I did. I wonder if I did a better job rating and reviewing this year? I meant to.

I did a slightly better job of writing at least a short review of the books I read. Out of the 43 books I read, I wrote a review for 17 of them. I always have a hard time knowing what to say beyond stating whether I liked it or not. I should at least start doing that. Oftentimes I have every intention of writing something, but then I've moved on to the next book, and I never get back to it.
How many books did you read in 2015? I'd love to hear some suggestions for my 2016 reading list.
*if you happen to click any of the book covers and buy from Amazon, they say they'll pay me a small percentage. Every little bit helps, and I thank you for your support!
