Books I’ve Read: 2011
The blogger with a pile of books, January 2010
I’ve always been a fairly consistent reader. But this year, thanks to my Kindle and the BlogHer Book Club, I’ve read more than I have in a long time. I went back and figured out exactly what books I’ve read this year, and created a separate page called (you guessed it) “Books I’ve Read: 2011.” You may have noticed the new link in my menu.
One thing I’ve made it a point to do this year is NOT read a book I’m not enjoying. The last time I forced my way through a book I hated put me off reading for quite a while. So if I finished a book, I enjoyed it. Which means all the books on this list I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed, and would recommend. I did note some with a “*” in cases where I particularly liked the book for one reason or another.
Right now I’m reading “Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?” by Mindy Kaling, and I’m loving it. Have you read any good books lately?

I love books!! as much as sewing, which is my passion! I like the idea of your books you’ve read. I might do that on my blog!! great idea! But all my books I read would take me along time to type them! I read about 3 -4 books a month, if its a mystery series I can’t stop til I’m done with the set!! I’m always looking for new series to read. Thanks for sharing! I will check out your list
I finished two books I wasn’t enjoying this year: The Forest of Hands and Teeth (because I couldn’t believe that it wouldn’t get better) and Jane Eyre (because I was dying to see the newest movie version and felt like it was Time to read the book).
