The 2015 Book Post

This is for my friend over here, but all are welcome to read and wonder, of course.

Last year, I read 100 books, though I do count rereads and audiobooks, so keep that in mind when we're looking at numbers. I shoot for about 100 a year. I will follow R's model and bold recommendations, though some with reservations. Okay, here we go...
