Above: Adolfo Bioy Casares
In 2012, I read a total of 40 books. Of these books...
- 36 were written by men; 4, by women
- 33 were written by white people; 6 were written by non-white people; in 1 case I am not able to make any determination
- Of the non-white authors, 2 were African-American, 2 were Mexican-American, 1 was Indian-American, and 1 was Chinese.
- 21 of the authors are still alive; 17 are dead; 1 can reasonably be assumed to be dead; and, in 1 case, I have no idea
- 16 of the books were fiction; 24 were non-fiction
- I read 24 of the books for the first time; 16 of them were books I had read before at least once
- I owned 26 of the books; 14 of them were from the library
