My Top 11 Books/Series of 2011


Hello again! This post I'll show you guys the Top 11 Books/Series that I read in the year 2011. I don't think they'll be in much of an order but who knows. I still haven't chosen my Top 11 and am doing it as I go. And the reason I'm doing Books/Series is because if I chose only books, one particular author would have the whole list to herself. But let us begin!

I got to meet her and everything and she's just up there with Queen Rowling. But before I leave you all, let's get down with some facts of 2011.

And there you have it! The year 2011 is now officially over and 2012 has started with a bang. I'll be tucking this page into a box so that next year I can compare the two and see how good I've gotten. But it's crazy recording the books you've read and what time because some books I thought I read in 2010 and then I remembered things that happened on that day. It's amazing what I can remember just by looking at a page. But I'll see you all later. It's time for me to read some books and be epic! Bye everyone! 



Books Read In 2011



Hello everyone! I've missed you all! The past few weeks have been crazy with the final days of college and then work had me working on Holidays until night because people love shopping and it's all been just so crazy. But I am back once more and this time it's going to be bigger than ever. 


Last year I promised you that my list would be in order from the books that I read and they are! I have a list that I made where I wrote down the book, number of pages, date I started and date I finished. My challenge this year was to read 50 books. I got up to 56 and would've gotten more if it weren't for work getting in the way. This year I don't exactly plan on doing a book challenge. It would be amazing to reach another 50 but I won't set up a planned goal. But let's get ready for the books. 


The format will go as;


Title, Author - Pages - Date Start/Date Finish - . After all of this another post will be put up with a bunch of information including My Top 11 Books of 2011. Shall we begin with the list though?
