Wow, Rachel. I can't believe you keep a list. Must try some of these.
I love Goodreads ... It keeps my list for me.
I have a couple from your list on my TBR list
You inspired me. I've just made a list of my fave 10... So I'll have to blog them soon.
Xx
Hi Toni - yep, even though I'm on Goodreads, I still keep a list too. Although I'm scared I missed one or two books off.
Hi Michelle - glad to have inspired you and I can't wait to read YOUR list!
A book a week! Cool. And a few favourite authors I see there. I can't wait to read Marrying Daisy Bellamy, too.
Here's a few of my favourites: Flirting with Forty (Jane Porter), Chances and Secrets (Freya North), Animal Magnetism (Jill Shalvis), Dream a Little Dream and Match me if you Can (Susan Elizabeth Phillips), Explosive Eighteen (Janet Evanovich). And category: Shipwrecked with Mr Wrong and A Kiss to Seal the Deal (Nikki Logan), Heart of a Hero (Barbara Wallace), Nikki and the Lone Wolf (Marion Lennox). Heaps more read but a bit of a blur now. Chances probably my favourite.
Great job, Rach! I have some on my TBR pile but I will have to check out others as well.
I recently finished Captive by Christina Phillips -brilliant. As well as J.R. Ward's 'The Rebel' (writing as Jessica Bird) and Anna Campbell's 'Temp the Devil', Tracey O'Hara's 'Death's Sweet Embrace.' I've read a many more great books this year.
Happy reading in 2012!
Natalie - I didn't even realise it was a book a week. That sounds quite good :) And thanks so much for your list - there's a few on there that are DEFINITELY going on mine!
Eleni - see some fabulous Aussie authors on that list! We are so lucky to have so many talented writers down under :)
I also did a similar list on my blog today but I didn't come anywhere close to reading the same amount of books as you! Well done :)
I really wanna read Marrying Daisy Bellamy now! I hadn't heard of it so thanks so much for bringing it to my attention!

Thanks for stopping by Megan - off to check out your blog :)
Like Michelle, I also love Goodreads - can't believe I've read 84 this year.
Hoping to finish the cat romance I'm currently reading before tomorrow night and make it 85 :)
Happy New Year!
Great list you!
(word verification is listign...)
I reckon you read a few more of mine though (champ that you are!!)
Um that was bec above...
=)
WOW Joanne - 84 is AMAZING!!! I didn't read too many category, so maybe that's why I'm slowing down :)
Bec - lol, yes, I definitely read all the brilliant LIFER as well, and maybe AP as well too :) But I loved them all!
I'm another that is so impressed you keep a list! And I'm so honoured that I got a little asterisk :)
This year has been basically a book drought, although I've been on holiday the past two weeks and have been reading up a storm - heaven! For some reason I've been devouring historical romances - Lorraine Heath, Pamela Morsi and Jennifer Ashley. I received What Alice Forgot for Christmas, so I'm looking forward to reading that, too. AND, of course, re-reading One Perfect Night ;)
Leah - your book DESERVED the asterix!!
