I had a grand plan to read three of the books I got for Christmas before the 31st, so that I could add them to this disgracefully small list. But I have a much better understanding of my limits, these days, so I admit that it won’t happen. With no further ado, then:

Books 2010

Ill Wind (Rachel Caine)
Avalon High (Meg Cabot)
Blood Rites (Jim Butcher)
Windfall (Rachel Caine)
City of Bones (Cassandra Clare)
All the Windwracked Stars (Elizabeth Bear)
Dead Beat (Jim Butcher)
Journey to the Center of the Earth (Jules Verne)
Baby Proof (Emily Giffin)
Magic Bleeds (Ilona Andrews)
Book of a Thousand Days (Shannon Hale)
Poison Study (Maria V. Snyder)
Maybe This Time (Jennifer Crusie)
Deception Point (Dan Brown)
Fire (Kristine Cashore)
Dead to Me (Anton Strout)

I borrowed most of these books, and yet they are still outnumbered by the books I bought and have not yet read. Here is that list; all of these are literally feet away from me.
