It was another successful and enjoyable year for reading. I reached my goal of more books than the previous year, but just barely. I finished my final book on December 31 just a few hours before midnight for a total of 56 books in 2017.
I strayed a bit from my goal of reading more Canadian authors, but there's always 2018!
Here are the books:
1. The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo (224)
