Saturday's Child Thanks for this list Kate :)


message 14: by Julia (new)

Julia Currently reading two books, but I haven't finished any yet this year.


message 15: by lethe (new)

lethe Spam books will be deleted.

The current #2 (Fateful Destiny: An Epic Struggle to Change the Course of American History) is a spam book (see the voters and the many other lists they have added this book to).

I reported the author and his sockpuppets/alter egos to Support yesterday, hopefully they will do something about it.


message 16: by Kat (new)

Kat I removed it. We'll see if it pops back up.


message 17: by Rainbowheart (new)

Rainbowheart The current number two book, While I Have You, appears to be spam.

Same group of three people voting this title onto multiple lists.

I do. I love knowing I have a little cushion in case a slump pops up.

Yes same! I am ahead by 4 books at the moment which is great because sometimes I have a month or two were I read almost nothing at all, but I am aiming to actually try and reach my goal before December and hopefully go over it a bit :)

That's great! I hope you can keep it up.


message 29: by Kat (new)

Kat I'm a teacher, so my reading is never consistent. I go long stretches with no books, then I'll polish off a bunch in succession. I always feel vaguely guilty when I get behind XD.


message 30: by Julia (new)

Julia My favourite read this year was Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul 25th Anniversary Edition: An Update of the 1997 Classic. Of course, I may be biased because I am a contributor! :)


message 31: by Kate (new)

Kate new list for the new year!
