Ramesh | 35 comments I'm about on track for my goal this year - 10 books a month having finished 37 books so far. I'm on my biggest stumbling block, Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow but I'll nibble my way through. At some point this fall I should finish one of goal lists, A Reading List Challenge that opened my eyes to some great books I would never have picked up otherwise. Thanks for the encouragement!
