I have been keeping track of my annual reading for about 7 years now. In 2012, I read 75 books. This compares to 84 last year, 73 in 2010, 80 in 2009, 110 in 2008, and around 140-150 in the few years before that. This decrease from the mid 2000s is because I listen to an absolute ton of podcasts, which cut into my reading time. I have always been a fan of audio, and 38 of the 75 books I consumed this year were via unabridged audio. 24 were traditional dead-tree books, 11 were graphic novels or collections, and 2 were on the Nook.
The 54 novels I read break down as follows: (note that the total exceeds 54, as many books fit into more than one category)
Fantasy/SF -- 33
Mystery/Thriller -- 15
YA -- 11
Religious/Christian -- 10
Contemporary -- 3
The 21 non-fiction works I read break down as follows: (note that the total exceeds 21, as many books fit into more than one category)
Christian/Theology -- 8
Sports & Entertainment --7
Memoir/Biography -- 6
Business -- 4
