My 2010 in Books

This year was pretty average for me as far as number of reads (far less than many on here, I know). As far as book quality, I think it was average too, but I did find some unexpected stars like The Surgeon and Angels in America (the first part of which I read for a class). Also read some well-known goodies for the first time like the entire Harry Potter series and Hamlet. So all in all, this was a pretty good reading year for me.
