It’s almost the end of 2012 and once again the end of the world came and went. Sorry Mayans!
Goodreads tells me that over the year, I have read 72 books. At least, that’s as many as I can remember reading. It will be 73 if I finish Tipping the Velvet today which I hope to do. And then I have two to read over vacation: How to be a Woman and The Shadow Society.
I suspect that there were more but maybe that’s just me thinking I’m more awesome than I am. Anyway, I thought that I would try and give you a list (because end of the year means lots of lists! I started with ten, but kept finding more books that I really loved, so I made it 15.
These are books that I have read in 2012, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that they were published in 2012. Some were, but you will see some older ones in there, too.

Also, the novel is basically done! The ending might be a little abrupt, but in a few weeks, I’ll go back and do some editing. I’ll fix it then. But for now, it’s done! And I’m on vacation for the next 11 days. I may forget how to do my job!
Thanks for reading this year! See you in 2013.
