I’m not sure, how I ended up reading the following books this year. I am not even sure if I retained everything that I read, but I am still working on it. I love reading and I somehow find time to read, mostly during office breaks and vacations. Most of the books I read are from the collections of a local library. Check out this link, to find out the benefits of reading. Well, I’d encourage you to take a look at these books I read this year probably some book will catch your eye too.
