Listopia > 2013 To Be Read

Books I intend to read in 2013. I'm aiming for 40 books in total (5-10 of which should be nonfiction; half or more of which I should own). I've listed 52 to allow for spontaneity and because I always read more than I think I will. Other books will inevitably be added as I go along. Suggestions or votes for non-American authors are appreciated!
