This is not quite a full list, as I've only started keeping track since April 13th, but I think it'll be interesting to keep tabs on what I manage to make my way through. I re-read often, particularly if I liked a book. The first re-read of a book for the year is noted with (R); subsequent re-reads are ignored.
