My Goal Has Been Reached

I am currently reading my 102nd book of the year.  I reached my goal of 100 books.  The 100th book I read was, She's Come Undone by Wally Lamb.  I enjoyed it.  Gave it a rating of a 4.  It is the second book I have read by Wally Lamb.  His books are unique.  I found She's Come Undone hard to get into.  Once I got into the flow, I enjoyed it. 
I was looking for something interesting to read and remembered I had posted a reading list in September.  I jot down books to read all the time.  I'll end up with several lists.  Never end up reading most of them.  I went back to this list a month ago to see where I was.  I researched some of the books, again.  Decided I am not interested in, State of Wonder by Ann Patchett now.  I started, This Beautiful Life, today.  I am enjoying it so far.  I am going to refer to this list once in awhile and see how many I get read.

Now that I am a reader again (read my 3rd book of 2011..) I would appreciate a list of all of your 4-5 rated books of the year.

-I read 'The Help' in one day...

I gave you two books. The other one I gave you was rated a 4 or a 5. You can read it in an afternoon.
