At times like that I just tell myself that everything will work out and relax into my book. Sounds like you need the break.

We are on day 150 out of 366 days this Leap Year.

Days into Challenge divided by Total Days of the Challenge = “on target percent”
150 / 366 = 40.98% “on target percent.”
We've read 6,278 books so far. So...
6,278 / 16,000 = 39.23%

Jonetta (ejaygirl) Have you refreshed the challenge page? My totals don't reflect what's in my shelf. It should be 108, not 98.

It's the Goodread bug, Jonetta. We try to click on everyone's challenges at least once a week.
You can click on it every once in a while and it'll update itself. Your clicking worked and yours is showing 109 at the moment :)


message 165: by Jonetta (new)

Jonetta (ejaygirl) I clicked on "view books" and that refreshed my totals.

Thanks!

Rebecca NJ (njreader) | 103 comments Hello!

I have experienced an unusual phenomenon this year and I have actually surpassed my goal. Would it be better for me to update my goal or should I keep it the same and keep adding my books as I go?


message 177: by Phoenix (Online Elf), Moderator (new)

Phoenix (Online Elf) | 4358 comments Whoa! Congrats, Rebecca! Really, you may do either. (At 14,300, we haven't reached our goal of 16,000 by sign-ups.) It might make us look better, but it is us to you.

Thanks! And, again, great job!

Thanks! It's funny because last year I was no where close to meeting my goal. I'll add in small increments - while I won't make up the difference, it'll help overall.

message 182: by Robin (Saturndoo) (new)

Robin (Saturndoo) (robinsaturndoo) OK I have met my goal plus some does that mean I quit reading now....LMBO I don't think that would happen. I am not going to update/increase my goal I am just going to keep reading and adding my books. My goal was 200 and I have read 258. I am going to shoot for 365 but not sure I will make that.

I have been out of work the last four days sick and will be out of work for the next 6-7 days because I am still sick and have other illnesses that they found today so I am on bed-rest so that means A LOT OF READING TIME :)

WTG everyone and GOOD LUCK meeting those goals!!!! Keep reading and enjoying your books :)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 752 comments I just added a 121 and linked myshelf. But will probably get a few more finished by the end of the year.


message 193: by Silvia (new)

Silvia I've been reading a lot of short stories to help make our goal. But I've also read quite a few books this year that have had a lot of pages as well but these short eBooks count! I only have 10 more books to make my personal goal and I'm positive I'll make it. ; )

Yay Rebecca and your sister! I have one more book to finish for a challenge and then I'm going to finish the year reading short eBooks. Hope springs eternal. ; )
