READING 2010
Attached is a list of the books I've read so far this year. Sometimes I
add markers like (*) to indicate books I particularly like. I also try
to keep track of how many books of a particular kind (novel, etc.) and
from a given country and century (Eng. 19th, etc.), I read each year. Richard
