Thanks, Judy! I tried to mix and match all genres so that I am not stuck to one particular type of books. I still think I have been pretty partial towards Magical Relasim, though! ;)

Hahaha. I ignored a lot of long ones last year in order to finish more books. This year I have a goal for only 20 books so, hopefully, I'll manage to finish the big ones. I'm particularly keen on finishing a lot of Russian Classics and most of them like Crime and Punishment, Anna Karenina, The Insulted and Humiliated are huge!
