The Big Read Comes to an End -- Hurrah!

In December I read another 14 books, for a grand, record-smashing 2014 total of 185 books.  Whew!  Boy howdy, I don't want to do that again.  Next year I want to focus on art, so this blog will go unused and/or mutate into something else.  We shall see.

102 of the books were nonfiction and 83 were fiction, for a total of nearly 50,000 pages.  They are listed in previous posts, so here I will just note the ones added in December.

Nonfiction
On the Map (Simon Garfield)
One Man's River (Keith Brockie)
Open Horizons (Sigurd Olson)
Out of the Flames (Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone)
A Passion for Books (H. Rabinowitz/R. Kaplan, editors)
The Year of Reading Dangerously (Andy Miller)
The Path: A One-Mile Walk Through the Universe (Chet Raymo)
Picture This: How Pictures Work (Molly Bang)
Phantoms on the Bookshelves (Jacques Bonnet)

Fiction
The Cruelest Month (Louise Penny)
A Rule Against Murder (Louise Penny)
Nuts to You (Lynne Perkins)
The Brutal Telling (Louise Penny)
The Only Thing Worse Than Witches (Lauren Magaziner)

Happy New Year's Eve!
