January -
http://thecomicforums.com/discussion/2596/the-2014-reading-list-thread-january#latestAlrighty! Time for month #2! A short month, but still plenty of time for reading! List all your books you read from 2/1 to 2/28 and (should you choose to) pick your top 5 toward the end and from those 5 pick a single book that "wins" that month. At the end of the year you'll have 12 books that'll give you an idea of the best you've read that year. You can even go so far as to pick a "Book of the Year"
Most of all...let's have fun with this!
