I set out to read 60 books, I ended up with 35 (same as last year!) Of course I did not finish the challenge. But then I tried and did the best I could to reach the goal. Hopefully I will read the same or even more number of books in 2013. So here…

2011 was more or less the year of books for me!And since I needed a challenge to keep going, I thought ‘lets try to read 50 books this year’. Well, I finished 35 (honestly, I did not read last 30 pages of ‘The Difficulty of being good’. Too much that book was!)Here’s a break down…
