Books I Read in 2013

The past few years I have been keeping track of what books I read. When I get to the end of the year, I set a goal to read one more book the following year than I did that year. Unfortunately, my goal this year was to read 31 books, and I only read 26. Still a good amount of books though. Here is my list from 2013, books with an asterisk (*) are ones I hadn't read before:

Quite a fun list of books! Well, not all of them were fun. But I really enjoy reading and it feels good to see how many new books I read this past year! I have been working on branching out from just my normal Fantasy/Science Fiction novels that I love so much. I'm not necessarily branching out a lot, but I am learning to enjoy other genres as well. :)
