message 51: by Marmie7 (new)

Marmie7 My goal is 75 and I've read 71. It started out 65 but I kept reading graphic novels and felt like I was cheating-Haha.

Tess826 | 14 comments Mine is 120, well, it started as 50 books, but when I had finished that I kept adding 10 books every time, now it's 120 and I already have it.

Sally | 22 comments I don't have a 2016 reading goal yet, because I only recently joined GoodReads and I didn't know about the reading goal challenge, but I'm hoping to set a goal for next or next next year.

Joy (audioaddict1234) Mine is 100. I'm at 87 I think and reading short books the rest of the year just to clear out my stash. But next year I am planning to read 40-50 longer books.

Sara Jothi (sarajothi) mine was 50.. I just checked and seems like I surpassed that and over with 71 books


message 56: by Margaret (new)

Margaret (margaret76) Mine was 5 because I just started reading again now that I have teens that are never home. I have now changed that to 10, but I am on number 7. For next year my goal is 35.

How do you read so many? Do you actually read every word in the book?

Moazzam Hussain | 1 comments It's great to see people are so full of energy and passionate about completing challenges.Guys, but it's not about just finishing the number of books.It is much more than that.It is about sharing what you have read and bringing people to explore the world of books who actually haven't read at all in their lives.

Still everyone of you is doing amazing job here.Hope you read many more :)

Yeah, I do read every word in the books, but a lot of the books I'm reading are short stories as I desperately need to get them off my TBR list.
Then again I have read quiet a few big books this year... I think this proves that I have WAY too much time on my hands lately.


message 64: by Katherine (new)

Katherine | 17 comments Yeah, I can read fast in my head but when I try to read out loud its the opposite and then I start getting bored of my own voice and then I stop to carry on reading in side my head.


message 65: by Katherine (new)

Katherine | 17 comments I know I can't either, one of my biggest (silliest) fears is that I'll run out of book to read and that I'll get so bored that it wont be funny. lolz


message 66: by Katherine (new)

Katherine | 17 comments Yes, exactly like that!!!! XD
