I count 64 books for 2010. This year I cut all the books I didn't finish. Not even going to list them. There were 20-ish books I started and didn't finish for one reason or the other. If I hadn't wasted my time one those, I probably could've finished another 5-10 books, at least. Ah, well. So it goes sometimes.
 
I bolded my favorites for the year.
 
Happy reading!
