Thanks! I really liked your post of this meme – it’s fun, isn’t it, to take a proper look at how you’ve done in a year?

By all means use the meme! I love seeing how other bloggers’ reading year has gone. I think you’re quite right to talk about your abandoned books – I’m going to adopt Eva’s idea of talking about a bunch of them at once in a monthly/quarterly post.

I hope you don’t mind. I like seeing your personality come through as you write about your year.

I always mention books that I abandon and why. The few times I’ve done that this year, blog readers have convinced me to try again at some point. So that’s why I do. Twice, though, though, most people said they couldn’t stand it either.

I have previously posted my favorite 10 books but I’ll snag this meme because it gives readers a more comprehensive picture of my reading. 🙂

Thanks! I can’t do without my rereads; especially after a rather intense new book, I need something comforting and familiar. Yes, do the meme! I’m looking forward to seeing it!

I’m jealous of your reading totals! What was it, something like 400? I love your idea for the abandoned books – I don’t think I abandon enough books to do a monthly post, but maybe a quarterly one…

I used to re-read a lot, but now that there are so many new titles to discover (via blogs) I can’t recall the last time I re-read something. I think I ought to do this meme…

And I hope you go back to Alias Grace; I really loved it. 🙂

This year, I’ve decided to start recording data on abandoned books; I’m going to write about each one in a draft post as I abandon it and then publish all of that at the end of the month. Mainly because I’m curious too!

Thanks! I am looking forward to 2010, and I am determined to be more purposeful in my reading this year.
