I have been keeping track of my annual reading for about 8 years now.
In 2013, I read 66 books. This compares to 75 last year, 84 in 2011, 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 53 novels I read break down as follows: (note that the total exceeds 53, as many books fit into more than one category)
Fantasy/SF -- 25
Mystery/Thriller -- 17
Religious/Christian -- 11
YA -- 9
Contemporary -- 3
Horror -- 2
The 13
non-fiction works I read break down as follows: (note that the total
exceeds 13, as many books fit into more than one category)
Christian/Theology -- 7
Self-Help/Business -- 4
History -- 3
Humor -- 2
