Hi. I'm new to the group but I love the idea here. I've already added several books to my to-read list from what you guys have read so far this year. I read a lot. Really, I feel like that should be A LOT, not just a lot. I travel for my job so I spend a lot of time in hotel rooms with nothing more to do than read a couple of books. I have a pretty ecletic interest in subjects, ranging from children's books to novels, from fantasy and sci-fi to true crime, from graphic novels to memoirs. So, here's my list so far for this year...
