It’s time for my annual reading report. So, the numbers for 2011 are:
Total number of books: 103 Total number of pages: 30,434* Fiction: 67.5** Non-Fiction: 35.5 Print titles: 86 Of which were graphic novels: 12 eBooks: 14*** Audiobooks: 2 Male authors: 110 Female authors: 17
* Page count based on the print edition I was reading or the equivalent print edition to the e-version.
** One book contained both a novella and an essay.
*** When it comes to print & eBooks, in a few cases I read part of a book in print and part electronically. However, the numbers ended up working out as whole numbers.
