Thus, without further ado, below is the list of books I read in 2013. Per usual, the books are divided into the categories of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry, and the books are listed in chronological order, with the books I read earlier in the year listed first. While I did write brief reviews of a good number of the books over at GoodReads, I have not included the links. (I don't have time to create the links; as is witnessed by my utter failure to keep this blog updated...) If you want to read them, friend me on GoodReads.
Wishing you a joy- and happiness-filled 2013. Happy reading!
