Here’s a list of all the books I’ve read since I started this blog in August 2009. Partly because my memory fails me and also through an OCD need to record what I’ve read so when I look at my bookshelf I don’t start reading one I’ve already finished.
But if I’ve completely forgotton it, I suppose that doesn’t really matter.
So this list is to help stop me reading the same book over and over, in a Memento stylee.
