2012 Reading Review — Anthony Randazzo

In 2012 I made it through 54 books, well exceeding my total from 2011. They were a mix of fiction and non-fiction, some for work, some for school, some for pleasure. Most were first time reads, a few were re-reads out of curiosity. These are listed in order that I completed them, there are no partial books on this list. Same crude five star rating as last year:
