100 Books


In February 2011, I decided to read 100 books. The plan was to read 100 books in one year. But, it took me 4 years and almost 7 months to finish reading 100 books. . . ha!ha! I was just so full of myself back then. There were no list of books to read, just 100 books. I tried reading a diverse genre, but the list below shows that I'm more inclined to reading fiction especially mysteries, legal dramas/thrillers, detective stories, and crime/spy/action novels. :)

And because I'm not sure how to write a book review, I will just list them and write some comments on a few books. :)
