Fifty-one

Books read this year. A quick "composite" suggested by the middleman after a conversation about the kind of people that keep lists in the backs of their diaries...

Oh, and for anyone who might be interested, here are my Top Five albums of the year (and, rest assured, I'm aware of any anomalies as regards the 'official' release dates here) :

'Warm Chris' by Aldous Harding,
'Summer at Lands End' by The Reds, the Pinks and the Purples,
'Disintegration' by the Cure,
'You Had a Kind Face' by Butcher Boy, and
'Fall in Love not in Line' by Kids on a Crime Spree.
