Welcome, Amy! You are not too late to join the fun. I sent you a "friend-invite."


message 759: by Britta (new)

Britta (macdeath) | 148 comments Ello. All of this has managed to confuse me to no end, but from what I understand, this is something I'd love to do. So, sign me up!

✔ How many books you read in 2012.
I'd say around 70-75, but I can't be sure, because I suppose I never thought to mark the date on the books I read on Goodreads and now only a part of what I actually read is accounted for on my list. But yes. Around 75 I'd say.
✔ How many books you plan to read 2013
My 2013 Reading Challenge is set to 50, but I'm already nearly there and will probably finish before the end of the summer, so I'd predict about 100 by the end of the year.
✔ If you were in Round I, the percentage of goal reached would be appreciated, if you know it.
N/A
✔ Would you be willing to be a Team Captain?
No, since I already have no clue as to what I'm doing! :)

Hi, Storm. Glad you are interested in the TTRC. We do need some sort of book goal. Should I just indicate what you have for the main GRs challenge?

I plan on updating that as I get closer to the goal number, so, I guess about 35 would work?
