Honestly, I don't have time to update after every book, but that is because I do several challenges. I've noticed that many people update once a month, and I have switched to that method as well. Find something that makes you comfortable.

[Kadijah Michelle]

Hello all,

I just want to say I am sorry. I just realized that while I had been updating my spread sheet for this thread, I had not updated your numbers on message #2 for over 2 months! It's been crazy for me between kids with broken legs, major Islamic holidays, my sister getting married, and some not so exciting happenings in my life but still very distracting. I promise to be better the rest of the year.

Kadijah Michelle

[Cathie]

Thank you for all that you do for us Kadlijah Michelle!

[Stephanie]

Update: Finally finished another one from this challenge. I just finished "The Buried Giant" by Kazuo Ishiguro. I now have 4/25. I got to get on my horse...
