A LOT of gluten/celiac-related
books that I won’t list here – let me know if you need
recommendations.
Re-read:
Outlander series
Harry Potter series (minus
Deathly Hallows)
So what does this list say
about me?
·
Six books about
Mormons and/or FLDS? Apparently my appetite for books about Mormonism and
polygamy has not yet been met. It’s a great time to be interested in books
about Mormons.
·
I like
re-reading books, particularly series. I also re-watch movies and TV shows.
·
There is a small
list, but longer than usual, of books I didn’t finish this year. Instead of
trudging through just to finish, when half of the people in your book club
won’t have finished it either, why suffer through the ones you hate? There
won’t be a test! Being able to easily access eBooks from NYPL has added to this -- I feel much less pressure to finish books I didn't pay for.
Books I’m currently reading,
but won’t finish before 2013:
Peter the Great
Less Than Zero
The Murder of the Century
