My favorite books from 2013

Semicolon's regular Saturday Review of Books is in list form today, on the subject of the books you've read in 2013 (or variations thereof). I decided to just highlight my favorites from the 50 or so books I read this year*, separating them into fiction and non-fiction, and whether or not they were new to me. I also set apart the kids' books, just because that seemed useful. :)

So, here are the books I enjoyed the most this year:

*I have to say: editing one book and writing another certainly cut into my reading time this year!
