Unread Books 2010

Edited to add the results of my latest book-buying spree. June 24th, 2010

Here's hoping everyone had a fun New Year's party and is planning a happy and healthy year to come.

The first post for 2010: my list of unread books. I made one of these up last year (Unread Books 2009), and thought it was a good idea to do it again.

Any books in "strikethrough" have been moved into storage due to lack of space.
