This was the first year i'd ever done such a thing, and it has been VERY gratifying. I recommend it to people who really chew through books. It was great to sit down and look back over what i thought of a book in January. It also helps me keep track of what i'd really be able to suggest to other friends depending on the content, etc.

I have often been surprised by the difference between my review written just after reading the book and my memory of it some years on.

I think that's a great idea. I'll have to start that habit!
