The following is a list of the books I read in 2008. There are 51 books in all that I could remember. To be honest, I’m very shocked that I had read so many- I was thinking maybe 25 or so. That being said, I’m aiming for about 25 this year. With the upcoming wedding and everything, I don’t want to aim unnecessarily high. No particular order.
