Record of 2012 Reads

I've never kept track of my reading before, but after being inspired by some other bloggers, I tried to keep a list this past year. Im pretty sure I've forgotten a couple, but here is the list....

• Sense and Sensibility- Austin
• Why Gender Matters- Leonard Sax
• Getting Anger Under Control-Neil Anderson
• Short Stories by Flannery O'Connor
• Hunger Games- Collins
• Cutting for Stone- Verghese
• Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocost- Lligabiza
• Gut and Psychology Syndrome- Campbell-McBride
• Girl with the Dragon Tatoo- Larsson
• Book of the Dun Cow- W. Wangrin
• Sarah's Keys- T. deRosnay
• The Life Model- Friesen, Wilder, and Koepcke

And a couple re-reads....

• The Doula book-
• The Birth Partner

Obviously, I read as much non-fiction as fiction...I enjoy both...and obviously, I dont get too much read. Since my reading time is mainly before bed, Im lucky to get a few pages read before falling asleep! Hope to find more space to read in the coming year. Several of these books were really popular in the past few years, and they are those I liked the least...including Hunger Games and The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo. Both were engaging, but I didnt walk away with the feeling that my time
was well spent or invested in them. I was left wanting more....substance I suppose.

With that said, have any books you think are must reads for my coming year? I'd love to know!
Im starting off reading The Hobbit aloud with Jonas and with a recommended Jasper Fforde Tuesday Next novel. Suggestions???
