Hello there fellow myLotter!
As I was browsing here in myLot, I've seen that most of the discussion here is all about the things they did in 2011, since I love to read ( it was just this year that I was hooked up in reading some books), So I came up with an idea on what were the books that you've read. Here are the books that I read for this year.
1. Eat, Pray and Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
2. Can You Keep A Secret by Sophie Kinsella
3. All or Nothing
4. Anna and The French Kiss
5. The Break Up Bible
6. The Winner Stands Alone by Paulo Coelho
7. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
8. The Mind of the Soul
9. Rich Dad, Poor Dad
10. Grammar Snobs Are Great Big Meanies ( Not yet done reading this book, hopefully I can finish reading this book before the year ends.)
This were just the list of books that I had read for this year. I would be really happy, If you will share what were the books that you've read for this year!

I have many books here that are half read and I think I will not be able to finish them within the year. Most of my books are either historical, biblical or both. Anyway, here is my list:
Done:
Rizal Without The Overcoat
Bones of Contention: The Bonifacio Lectures
Sculpture Garden
Ongoing:
The Pontiff In Winter
Reading Judas: The Gospel of Judas and the Shaping of Christianity

I love reading books too. I've seen books of Paulo Coehlo in the nearest bookstore here, I've been eyeing it but have never purchased any. Is it any good? Seeing that you've read some of his works, I feel the need to ask you that.
I've finished reading the Merry Gentry series of Laurell K. Hamilton within less than 2 weeks, my friend even described that I've devoured the books 'coz I've finished the 8 books in a short span of time. But I can't stop reading them because it's really good. I've also read few books from local authors. oh, I was also able to grab a copy of the Ink-keepers Apprentice by Allen Say in a Secondhad bookstore. ^^ I was really lucky.

I've had the chance to read quite a few books last year. However, I really can't remember all of them. As much as I did read a few books, I didn't really read as much as I would have liked. I still don't read as much as I should or would like, but with a three-month-old around the house, that really takes up most of my time.

I read a lot of books in 2011, I doubt I could remember even half of them!
My favourite books in 2011 were the Liveship Traders series by Robin Hobb.
I also read Eragon, Eldest and Brisingr, though I haven't yet read Inheritance since I was waiting to borrow my boyfriend's copy and was engrossed in something else by the time he was done.
I re-read some of my favourites - the Belgariad and Mallorean Series by David Eddings, the Harry Potter series and the Sookie Stackhouse books by Charlaine Harris.
Other than that, to be 100% honest, I wouldn't be able to remember the books I read last year. Perhaps I should start writing them down, so that I can review what I loved and hated at the end of this year.
