    Good job fitting 17 books into one year! I can barely get through two. ;) But at least I try, eh? Haha. This year my list is Piercing the Darkness and The Insanity of God. :)

      You chose a good one in "Piercing the Darkness." I haven't read "The Insanity of God" but I put it on my list.

    Wow Pamela, that's a lot of books!

    If you don't mind me asking, how do you determine what books to read? Looks like a pretty eclectic group.

      Scott, I review the newest books on Amazon, check out books I see reviewed, and books my daughters read and love. I have a goal of 50 books for the year. Eclectic because I bore easily. One year I decided to read all books on one topic. That lasted about a month until I found I wasn't enjoying reading.
