A year of book-buying

Books read in 2008: 
167

Books I (or someone I know) saw fit to add to my shelves:

Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket  Photobucket Photobucket
Photobucket Photobucket Photobucket

Which means I'm running true to form in that I tend to buy about one fifth of the books I read: 21.55% this year, to be precise.

And just for the record, my receipt for Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! is dated 1/05/08 -- a good two weeks or so before the Newbery announcement. So there.
