Half A Year of Reading


Each year since 1999, I have kept a running list of books that I complete in that year. Some of the books are repeats (It seems like we re-read all of the Dorothy L. Sayers "Lord Peter" mystery novels each year), some are for work (especially commentaries), some are for school (this year: books on small group ministry), and some are ones that I started in previous years but finished this year. Some are better than others. Some I hope never to read again. Some I hope to re-read really soon.

Here is my list for 2005 at the half-year mark:
