The Twelve Books of 2013

Here is the list of books that will possibly meet the challenge I've taken this year to read at least twelve books. I think I will read more, but that is my goal. Often in the past I would read many books, but not finish any. This year I'm trying to read and finish books. It's been fun so far. I also will have my first non-fiction book club meeting in two weeks. I'm very excited. We are reading "Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail."
