Broken down:

Fantasy -18 books
Sci-Fi -6 books
Crime/Thriller- 7 books
Fiction/Other - 2 books
Horror - 2 books
Non-fiction - none

This has broken my previous annual record of 32 books, which I personally thought was pretty impressive. Also includes 5 books I've reread - don't know why I insist on doing this but I usually enjoy them still the second time round!

A lot of books in between a lot of gaming - no wonder I'm behind on the housework as ever!

Anyway, last year's reading here, with a breakdown of:

Fantasy - 15 books
Crime/Thriller - 6 books
Fiction/Other - 5 books
Horror - 4 books

Still lots of unread books on my shelves - really must make my way through them, which means no more trips to the library methinks.

And not buying (too many) for my new Kindle....

Will buying for my Kindle clash with my usual NY resolution? I have a loophole....and it's not a cheat!
