40 books in 2010! 20 books in 2011! How many in 2012?
Finishing the last page of a nice book is so much rewarding, so I thought to read more since January 2010 instead of wasting my time in front of the PC or TV. I read whatever I think might be interesting. Fiction or Nonfiction. Each book opens a new horizon. With the books you can travel around the world. ..... I just want to do something useful for myself.
I read English and German language. The ranking is from 1 (=very bad) through 10 (=excellent).

19th book - "Ein liebender Mann" - Martin Walser - 9 points

A story about the 73 year old Goethe who falls in love with the 19 year old Ulrike in 1823. Actually based on a true story.
The German author Martin Walser (*1927) made a perfect job writing in the style of its time, but it's easy and relaxing to read.
I read the November 2009 paperback edition published by Rowohlt Taschenbuch Verlag. First published 2008.
