2013 Reading Roundup

I often share reviews of books that I've received here on the blog, but I read a lot of other books that I don't review here as well. I keep track of my books on GoodReads. One of my goals this year was to read at least 72 books this year, 10 nonfiction. I read more than 72 books this year, but only 6 were nonfiction. I designated the non-fiction titles with "NF" in parentheses and added a * for the books I rated with 5 stars on GoodReads.
