The Year 2008 in Books

Overall I'm pleased with the books that I read. There weren't that many that I considered truly bad. Last year's total was 77 books so at least I broke that record. But there were a lot of children/YA titles so that explains it. Hehe! I doubt that '09 will see such numbers.

And I actually reread books this year. Wow, I haven't done this since... well, to be honest I cannot remember. But I was tired of depriving myself. I blame The Phantom of the Opera for this.

Best: The Year of the Angry Rabbit, by Russell Braddon
Worst: The Alchemist, by Paulo Coelho
