The 2021 Book List

Beginning in 2011, I began posting, as a part of New Years, a list of the books I'd read during the year. This tradition began in my sorryalltheclevernamesaretaken blog and has been continued in this blog. Also, in January of this year, I decided to post a monthly list. That plan has actually turned out for the best.

In 2021, I read a total of 152 books - mostly ebooks - This is certainly far and away the most books I've read during any year since I began keeping track. The previous record total was 45 books - read in 2017.

In 2021 I was able to read a number of ebooks still under copyright, so I'm no longer limited to Project Gutenberg, Project Gutenberg Australia, and Faded Page. In May, I found a website that allowed me to download every mystery novel written by Agatha Christie in epub format (which I was able to convert to mobi for my Kindle). In October, I discovered another website which allows me to download ebooks by several writers which are also under copyright. That site is basically a "library".

I've decided that this year, rather than posting the 152 books in one post, I'd post links to each monthly book list of 2021.

Here, then are the 12 monthly book lists for this year.
