I am happy, decided to read two books I had on my kindle, both quick reads.

So reached my target of 60 books.

Now on 61st book.

Happy to reach that, especially this year, with all the long hours.

The Last 4 weeks I have worked 6 or 7 days a week, evenings till late. So pleased to reach my target

Lorrea - WhatChaReadin'? (whatchatreadin) My year started off slow. I didn't even start reading until April. I set my goal at 35 this year and I'm at 39.

Want to make it an even 40 for this year.

Next year i want to read 100 books.

Luffy Sempai (luffy79) Well done Lorrea! I couldn't imagine myself not reading a book during the first 3 months of a year. Glad that you found the time to complete your tally.

I had it at 20 at first, and then I upped it once I got back in the groove. It was hard not reading the first part of the year. I almost did it to myself again this year, but I decided to put down a book that wasn't doing it for me and move on to something else.

You can always change your book count number, enabling you to make it.

Kirsten  (kmcripn) That seems like a cheat, Mike.

In a past year, I changed my goal number early in the year and it didn't bother me one bit, doing that.


message 173: by Kirsten (new)

Kirsten  (kmcripn) Oh, I will adjust it throughout the year, but after December 1st I just accept it.
