I love the idea of keeping track of what I read, but I never manage to do it....then I realized-most boring blog post ever!
I'm starting this in April, so I will put down what I can remember of the last few months

-Unbroken

-Bangkok 8, detective story, but heavy on the people, light on the mystery investigation, entertaining
