Great job, guys! I am at 248/250!!! So close, almost there! I think I'm like 66 books ahead of schedule, or something like that! Which means that I might hit 300 books before the end of the year! Wouldn't that be awesome?

I also need to count up my rereads--that figure above doesn't include them!

Leigh | 403 comments Congrats Jenny! When I grow up I want to be just like you. LOL I think I may need to work on my reading speed to get to that.

I'm on a reading schedule so. :P I read a lot of books in a short time.

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 4472 comments Well done guys! :)

I've read 230 of 250 books. It would have been more, but I don't count re-reads.

Great job, Victoria! My goodreads challenge doesn't count rereads, but I think I will add them in at the end of the year to get my true total!

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 4472 comments No reason why you shouldn't, Jenny... If you read it you can count it!

Skaistė Girtienė | 57 comments I've just ended my challenge of 100 books! :D I think I will not update my goal and just see how many books I can read. I guess I'll be slowing down from here since there is less of spare time and more of work to do.

Bee (justabluebee) I'm reading my 132nd book out of 150. =)


Angela(demonsangel) Fitzgerald (demonsangel) | 74 comments My goal for the year is 540 books. I've read 416 so far. I was 1% behind but I added my books that I read the last few days and I think I will be back on track or a book ahead, I hope.


message 280: by Jenny, Always smiling! :-D (new)

Jenny (juliababyjen) | 12932 comments Mod
Holy Smikes! And I thought I was ambitious!!! 540 books!! WOAH!
The most I've seen anyone do is 300 a year! I will be thrilled to get to that!


Angela(demonsangel) Fitzgerald (demonsangel) | 74 comments Iooriginally put 600 but I knew I couldn't make it so I lowered it. I don't sleep much and I'm extremely fast at reading. I don't skim pages and I read full length books. I very seldom read short stories. I haven't added audio books either unless I have it on my Kindle snd reading along. I know when I do listen to audio books I listen to them on speed 2 or 2.5. I lose interest on that slow speed. I guess if I counted audios I would be well over my goal. I don't think about it until I read a comment about the goal. I don't watch TV anymore either. I sleep 2-4 hrs or skip days.

Victoria Zigler (toriz) | 4472 comments Well done on reaching your goal, Denise!

Well done Lade and Nelly!

WOW Angela! And I thought I read a lot!


Angela(demonsangel) Fitzgerald (demonsangel) | 74 comments That's all I fo but a read a wide selection of fantasy. I'm actually afraid to put on this group some of the things that I'm reading. I don't post what I'm reading unless it's YA.


message 287: by Bee (new)

Bee (justabluebee) Just keep calling me Bee. x)

I'm at 139 out of 150.


message 288: by Denise (new)

Denise (eendenise) Holy Angela. That's. Wow. Wish I could read only half of it in a year but even if I would be reading 20 hours a day I wouldn't be able to do that haha. My reading speed is like zero. (Unless it would be books with only 20 pages.... HAHA)
