Since 1994, I've kept a list of all the books I've read each year. (I know! I'm such a nerd!) I'm sure I've forgotten to write some down here and there, but it's a pretty accurate list. I don't know what made me think to begin my book list all those years ago. I'm glad I did, though, because it's fun to go back and look at it. It's also handy sometimes when I can't remember a book's title and want to reread it or recommend it to a friend.
I'll list some of my favorites from 2011 in case you might like to read them yourself.

Did you read any especially good books last year? I'd love to know what they were. I might add them to my "to be read" list for 2012.

I like reading other people's book lists too. I will probably put mine up tomorrow. The book on Alcott looks good. I'm going to add that to my list.
