I’ve been keeping track of book recs from fellow bloggers and elsewhere for the better part of a year now, but the way I’m keeping track of those recs– via Google Docs– is not working out well for me. Therefore, I’ve decided to take a page from The Ardent Reader and keep a list here! I’m hoping it’ll be both easier for me to keep track of and at least a little bit interesting to you folks.

Total books (not counting authors’ entire works): 250
Total read: 21
