Well, maybe we can make some additional progress this summer.

I just noticed I'm 11 books ahead of schedule. Kind of cool. Though i think it's because I currently don't have a job so I have so much time at home these days.
The pros and cons of unemployment. **le sigh**
I know. It's a weird feeling. Although I have a job interview on Thursday. So I'm pretty excited about that.
I think it went well. I'll get a callback around Tuesday/Wednesday as they had a lot of interviews to get through. I'm not sure at all where I stand though, since I don't have any idea what the other candidates can bring.

I'm hanging steady with this challenge. I'm at 36% of my promise of 100 books. I've read more this year, but I only started counting my books when I officially started the challenge. Since it is for the whole year, should I go back into my read books and add all of those I've read this 2016 Year? I wasn't sure which would be the proper thing to do, so I thought I'd ask for opinions...Thanks!

Sorry, everyone, I got distracted. My aunt is in the hospital.
Sending up good thoughts and prayers, Lisa Kay, for the best involving you and yours.:-)
Sorry to hear that Lisa Kay! I'll keep you guys in my thoughts and prayers.

I've now added all of 2016 to mine, since that is the challenge.:-)

We're getting there!
I'm on vacation for acouple of weeks. While I'm visiting people and traveling, I'll see what I can do to bump up those numbers. I did read 2 books and finish another in the past couple of days. So, that's a start.
I had a slow month. I'll pick it back up this month.
Ok, I'm really late getting started on this one but am eager to read!!Also I have a question: I have read several books in 2016 that are on other shelves and challenges can I add them to the 16,000 challenge shelf?

Yes Vicky you can, you can add all the books you've read in 2016 :)
I've upped my challenge. I was too far ahead for 100 at 90 books, so I've upped to 150 for now. My actual goal is over 225 , but I want to update as I go so I feel like I'm accomplishing something.:-)
Just a reminder... we'll be "clicking" for an update today.
I just added a few books I read over the past couple of days. This past week has been really slow for me. I'm hoping to pick up a bit.
I hope it picks up for you, too, Lara. :o)

I'm reading so much Italian... and not getting anywhere fast. LOL! So, I've been listening to audio for my Romance fix.
