So that's my year, how was yours?
An awesome list, Margaret! I'll be adding some of these to my TBR list - A King's Ransome is at the top. I've heard great things about it.
ReplyDeleteWay to go reading 150 books in 2015! I read 101 books last year which tied with my highest number of books ever read (back in 2010). I like how you broke down your list into categories. I know that in 2015 I listened to a lot more e-audiobooks and read a lot of 'new to me' authors. Don't ya love finding new authors to love?? Happy reading in 2016!
