LOL! I figured, go big or go home. :P And I like nice round numbers. :| Let's see if I can actually reach this goal.

Jen Quintanilla omg dude! 50 already. Well, I feel like a lazy ass. haha


message 5: by Huma (new)

Huma Rashid Haha, not quite at 50 yet, but almost! :D I'm BARELY on track. :| I was so far behind for so long. Stupid law school.

I was looking back on my old reading journal and realized how often I used to hit 50 books in one year. Law school pretty much ruined my life.


message 7: by Jen (new)

Jen Quintanilla Ok seriously your numbers are unreal. They make me feel like a slacker. My goal is only 50 and I am perpetually 3 to 4 books behind schedule.


message 8: by Huma (new)

Huma Rashid My Kindle made a difference. :) I never knew how much time I spent waiting around places - now I just read whenever I have to wait.


message 9: by Mona (new)

Mona Congrats on making it to 100! That's quite a feat. :) I'm now wondering just how many you'll read before the end of the year...


message 10: by Jen (new)

Jen Quintanilla I am simultaneously cheering for you and shaking my fist. Really, we're upping it to 150?! Are trying to show the rest of us up? I'm FOUR books behind pace for my 50 a year! jkjk I'm proud of you. yaya!! Seriously an awesome accomplishment. cue the banners and streamers!

If it makes you feel better, I'm 7 books behind. I've given up on the idea that I might catch up...


message 12: by Huma (new)

Huma Rashid LOL! Thanks, guys. But what with my update, I'm now 6 books behind. :P At least I'm in good company.


message 13: by Mona (new)

Mona Congrats x 2! ;)


message 14: by Huma (new)

Huma Rashid Mona wrote: "Congrats x 2! ;)"

Thanks! :)

...Would it be too ambitious to try to make it an even 200?

:|

Because I'm seriously considering it.


message 15: by Mona (new)

Mona Dooo it! I I'm sure you can get there.


message 16: by Jen (new)

Jen Quintanilla I second Mona, DO IT! and Congrats again you crazy kid.


message 17: by Jen (new)

message 18: by Ceecee (new)

Ceecee You are amazing! I'm struggling to finish my 50 books in a year!


message 19: by Mariah (new)

Mariah I kind of hate you right now. My goal was 48 and I'm currently sitting at 28. I'll be lucky if I hit 30. LOL Good for you, though! 200 books is amazing.


message 20: by Mundi (new)

Mundi Congrats! Damn girl, do you just read all day long? You rock!


message 21: by Huma (new)

Huma Rashid Unfortunately, I do Bar study crap all day. :/ I read a lot at night. And don't sleep enough. :| But I'm quite glad to finish. :D


message 22: by Rosalie (new)

Rosalie How?! I need to know how you do this. haha. You are obviously the world's fastest reader; and you even manage to absorb what you've read. Can we trade brains for a day or two? ;)

LOL! My Kindle helped: I cant' tell you how many times I've pulled it out while waiting in line at the post office or on car trips or at the dentist's, etc. Plus, I often use the text-to-speech feature while I'm cooking, etc. It's amazing how much gets read. :D
