I finally managed to do a Book-A-Day that exactly matched a given year, after two more idiosyncratic prior runs here. (2006-2007 was 200 days, roughly September-February. 2010-2011 was exactly a year, but began in early February.)
The first time out, I had a Post-Mortem, to corral everything into categories. I think I was too exhausted in February 2011 to do that the second time, but this Book-A-Day ends in the middle of an epic end-of-year vacation, when I have nothing but time and nervous energy.
So here's how those books break down, for anyone as fascinated with tidy little categories as I am. Note that some of these are arguable cases, but this is how I score 'em. This post may also be most useful for people who only want to read in a particular category at the moment, and so happy hunting to them.
Fiction: Fantasy & SF (16, 4.4%)
London Falling by Paul Cornell
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
The Republic of Thieves by Scott Lynch
The Screaming Staircase by Jonathan Stroud
The Winner's Curse by Marie Rutkowski
Raising Steam by Terry Pratchett
The Incrementalists by Steven Brust and Skyler White
Something More Than Night by Ian Tregillis
The Madonna and the Starship by James Morrow
The Rhesus Chart by Charles Stross
The Song of the Quarkbeast by Jasper Fforde
The Eye of Zoltar by Jasper Fforde
Hawk by Steven Brust
A Night in the Lonesome October by Roger Zelazny
Deep Secret by Diana Wynne Jones
The Whispering Skull by Jonathan Stroud
There was a time when I "read" -- sometimes just the first fifty pages, the last fifty pages, and a skim of the bits in between -- two to four books in this category every single week. I vaguely miss that: at least, I miss the books I made time to read all of, not the shelf-fillers that I skimmed so I could sell them myself.
Fiction: Mystery & Thriller (2, 0.5%)
The Burglar Who Counted the Spoons by Lawrence Block
The Black-Eyed Blonde by Benjamin Black
I haven't read giant piles of books in this category for a long, long time, but two is awfully low for a whole year.
Fiction: Mainstream (10, 2.7%)
The Rise and Fall of Great Powers by Tom Rachman
Galahad at Blandings by P.G. Wodehouse
Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger
The Mezzanine by Nicholson Baker
Room Temperature by Nicholson Baker
Bright Lights, Big City by Jay McInerney
Dancing in the Dark by Janet Hobhouse
The Bushwhacked Piano by Thomas McGuaine
Jeeves and the Wedding Bells by Sebastian Faulks
Cathedral by Raymond Carver
Not bad, considering I'm only getting through about one "real" prose book a week on average. This should rise in the coming year, since the Vintage Contemporaries project is ongoing; I'm reading at least one book a month in this vague category.
Non-Fiction: Narrative (22, 6.0%)
Uncle Boris in the Yukon by Daniel Pinkwater
One Summer by Bill Bryson
How to Lie With Statistics by Darrell Huff
Levels of Life by Julian Barnes
The Revised Vault of Walt by Jim Korkis
Ten Years in the Tub by Nick Hornby
How About Never -- Is Never Good For You?: My Life In Cartoons by Bob Mankoff
Reflections: On the Magic of Writing by Diana Wynne Jones
Blood Will Out by Walter Kirn
The Folklore of Discworld by Terry Pratchett and Jacqueline Simpson
The Baby Boom by P.J. O'Rourke
Dance of the Reptiles by Carl Hiaasen
The Imperial Way by Paul Theroux with photos by Steve McCurry
You Can Date Boys When You're Forty by Dave Barry
My American Revolution by Robert Sullivan
Is That a Fact? by Dr. Joe Schwarcz
Flash Boys by Michael Lewis
Coyote V. Acme by Ian Frazier
What Were They Thinking? by Bruce Felton
A Slip of the Keyboard by Terry Pratchett
The Getaway Car by Donald E. Westlake
Underfoot in Show Business by Helene Hanff
This is a fairly vague category: everything basically true that's meant to be read through as a book. And it's very varied, with a lot of collections of miscellaneous stuff. My reading could clearly be substantially more serious than it is -- but it probably won't move too far in that direction.
Non-Fiction: Lists & Frivolities (10, 2.7%)
An Uncommon Scold edited by Abby Adams
The Literary Companion edited by Emma Jones
The Economist Book of Business Quotations edited by Bill Ridgers
Good Advice from Bad People by Zac Bissonnette
The Bathroom LOL Book compiled by Jack Kreismer
Wretched Writing by Ross and Kathryn Petras
The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World 2015 by Bob Sehlinger and Len Testa
Frommer's EasyGuide to Walt Disney World and Orlando 2014
The Compleat Ankh-Morpork City Guide by Terry Pratchett and the Discworld Emporium
Overheard in New York by S. Morgan Friedman and Michael Malice
These are mostly books for a particular purpose, and that purpose in most cases is wasting time in the smallest room in the house. I used to read poetry books there; maybe I'll go back to that at some point.

Strip Joint by Carol Lay
The World of George Price
The first of several comics categories; this one corrals books that collect work that originally appeared elsewhere and is mostly in individual strip (or panel) form. "Elsewhere" is vague enough to cover both print and digital; I don't make a strong distinction between distribution media, since I mostly like to read traditional strips that translate well to book publication. (And not Scott McCloud-esque infinite canvases.)

And these are comics reprinted from individual issues, more or less -- I may have forgotten nitpicking details of publication of some of these several dozen books, so my categories are not to be taken as gospel. This tends to be the more traditional comic-shop end of the comics industry, though, which is something worth marking off as its own thing.

The very largest category, unsurprisingly: I like comics, and I like reading things in book form, and I like my stories to be shaped to a particular purpose rather than grown like Topsy or just allowed to wander from one fight-scene to another. There is a lot of good stuff here: 2014 was a strong year for book-shaped comics.

This year I ended up mostly reading manga rather than manhwa or manhua, probably because that's where the big conveyor belt is aimed for the North American market. It's a mixed bag of crowd-pleasers and more artsy stuff; my personal taste tends to aim to the artsy, but the others can be fun as well. (Blatant fanservice, in particular, can be very amusing.)

This is almost all what I called "artsy stuff" above, and mostly from continental Europe. (There are a few books from Francophone Canada, but my sense is that community looks to France and Belgium for a model much more than they look domestically or to the USA, so it feels reasonable to lump them in here.) That said, some artsiness works better than others, and several of these books -- Blacksad, Isaac the Pirate, Adele Blanc-Sec, etc. -- are explicitly in adventure-story modes.

A vague category, yes, but it's basically things that exist to be art themselves or to showcase previous art. Some of them are physically too small to really be "coffee-table books," but that's another decent way of corralling them.
Books for Children of Various Ages (6, 1.6%)

29 Myths on the Swinster Pharmacy by Lemony Snicket and Lisa Brown
Not including novels for pre-adults, which I treated as plain novels in the above categories. (That line is so fuzzy that I don't believe it makes sense to patrol it in one's own reading. For bookstore categories and suggested-reading lists, definitely: age bands can be very useful in helping people find books they will appreciate and enjoy.) Another very mixed bag of stuff.
