Books read in 2011

Once again I forgot to write down some of the books I read this last year but I did better at remembering than in years past.  Now that I have an Iphone I'm a little worried that my reading is going downhill.  I find myself playing dumb games or habitually checking email and Facebook rather than reading.  I'm not too happy about it and I seriously have to get a grip!  So we'll see how the list comes out for 2012...I gotta get going if I want to read a decent amount this year.
