I was able to finish 20 books for the year. Very pleased with that. Pretty much read all of Bukowski's bibliography, save for Pulp and some short stories. Definitely going to read Pulp at some point. For now, I'm gonna start 2013 with The Shining by Stephen King.

Only read 18 books last year, will try to reach at least 20 this time around. Goodreads profile here.

Starting of the year with NW and Lost at Sea.

maybe i'll update more this year

1. Both Flesh and Not (David Foster Wallace, 2012)

I need to read his books

I haven't read Horns yet but HSB is absolutely fantastic. Terrifying and surprisingly fast paced, there's basically a new plot twist on every single page. Compare this to his King's first book, Carrie, and he's already off to a better start than his father. This is going to be a hell of an interesting career to follow.

Finished 23 books in 2012. Shooting for 25 in 2013.

1. The Orphan Master's Son (Adam Johnson)
2. The Fault In Our Stars (John Green)
3. Mistborn (Brandon Sanderson)
4. The Blade Itself (Joe Abercrombie)
5. The Templar Legacy (Steve Berry)
6. Before They Are Hanged (Joe Abercrombie)
7. Last Argument Of Kings (Joe Abercrombie)
8. Percy Jackson & The Olympians: Sea of Monsters (Rick Riordan)
9. The Other Lands (David Anthony Durham)
