2012 was a year of reading and education for me. I have read more this year than in any previous year and it is great to see the accomplishment. What I believe drove this was Jon Acuff’s “FinishYear<\/a>”\u00a0 where he talked about finishing 12 non-fiction books. I went and doubled!<\/p>\n

2013 is just around the corner and my goal is to complete 40 books by the end of next year. Who wants to come along on the journey?<\/p>\n

Below, in no particular order, are the books that I completed in 2012. The links will take you to Amazon to read more about them and where I have written a review I have included a link to that as well.<\/p>\n
