Yet another bonus video! This one was inspired by booksandquills's 50 Books Challenge videos. I started late in the year counting how many books I was reading (in May), but found that I read quite a lot, and quite quickly, and so had read 50 books by the end of July. I'm sorry, I know, this video is just a little bit too long for sustained interest, but is at least of interest to me in showing a cross-section of the books that I read, and showing me that my favourite genre at present is mystery!
