Last year for the first time, I kept track of the books that I read, and I read 47. So this with that as a baseline, I'm trying for one per week this year.

If you love baking, it is a definite must read. My wife and I both read it after we watched the Great British Baking Show. It is fictional, but well written and I even learned a little about baking.

So ended the year having read 49 books, 3 books short of my goal. But given that I accepted a promotion where I commuted 120 miles each way 3 days a week for two months prior to moving to a new city, I'll take it. Looking forward to 2017.
Hi Brent! Are you planning on using this thread for 2017 as well? I can move it into the 2017 folder for you.
