It was a very good year in terms of reading. Marjorie might have felt I spent a little too much time on it, but when you start reading, you can't stop. I'm so glad and grateful for books ... good books. Of course, one cannot neglect the most important ones: scriptures. Well, I did read the Book of Mormon once during the year and the children's version twice with Zeke. I'm also almost done with D&C, so at least, I'm not slacking off on spiritual reading.
Now, any suggestions for 2011? Just insert them in your comments!

I know you're more of a fiction/fantasy kind of guy, but I can give you some recommendations in a different genre. I really love the Malcolm Gladwell books. I'm reading The Brain That Changes Itself - also a psychology type book - and am really enjoying it. The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom, and The Alchemist are also classic feel good types. Maybe you've read them?
