50 books for 2008

I am taking part in a reading challenge to read 50 books in one year.* I’ve added a personal goal to also read at least 30 new books a year, inclusive of the 50 books a year.

This page lists the books I read this year. This list does not include books that I did not read in its entirety. Books with asterisks are new reads.

Completion: 31 / 50 (62%)
New reads: 27 / 30 (90%)
