2012 slipped by without a last update on my reading list for the year, and i guess that’s for the best because i couldn’t cross off a single book in the last quarter. the majority of my reading list for 2013 is what i didn’t get to in 2012, with a few new additions:

alice neel: the art of not sitting pretty – phoebe hoban
autobiography of a face – lucy grealy
blue nights – joan didion
born to run – christopher mcdougall
crime and punishment – fyodor dostoevsky
dear life – alice munro
dekooning: an american master – mark stevens & annalyn swan
disaster preparedness: a memoir – heather havrilesky
the fifty year sword – mark z. danielewski
the forever marriage – ann bauer
a gate at the stairs – lorrie moore
green girl – kate zambreno
how should a person be? – sheila heti
hunger games – suzanne collins
instant: the story of polaroid – christopher bonanos
i shock myself: the autobiography of beatrice wood – beatrice wood

spontaneous happiness – andrew weil
state of wonder – ann patchett
steal like an artist – austin kleon
the year of magical thinking – joan didion
36 hours: 125 weekends in europe – barbara ireland

i still have not been successful in carving out chunks of time for reading. i’ll need to try harder! and it doesn’t help that my brother gave me the complete series of the wire for xmas…

happy weekend, happy reading!
