End of 2011 Survey

I saw this over at Ten Cent Notes, Perpetual Page Turner was the first to post this last year and I wanted to do it again this year too! The one I did last year is over here. I know i'm really late since it's already 2012 but as I've said in my last IMM I couldn't post something before because of finals ! I'm sorry because for a lot of things I couldn't just choose one book. I'm quite proud because in 2011 I read 95 books !
