I keep telling myself not to join more challenges, but this one is too good not to join.

I will attempt to read 3 books, which is going to be tricky, as there are only two weeks left, but that makes it a challenge. :)

I hope to re-read:
1. Zwellend fruit by Peter Verhelst - This is one of my favourites. I've read it a couple of times, but maybe this time I will finally write a review.
2. My Family And Other Animals by Gerald Durrell - This is one of the first books I ever read in English. I've been meaning to re-read it, so I can read the sequel.
3. Kristal der dromen (The Blessing Stone) by Barbara Wood - I've read this one such a long time ago that I can't really remember much of it, except that I really enjoyed reading it. This one will also count for the Popsugar challenge (a book you haven't read since high school).

[Fr. Andrew]

I'm finally starting my book for this challenge, The Color of Magic. I hope to then continue on and read the whole series, as long as it maintains a hold on me. I think it's almost fifty books long if you include the side books.

Congratulations, Paul!

[Paul Emily]

Thanks Candiss! I won't lie though, part of me will be relieved to finish with this challenge so I can finally get back to some other challenges I have going on that I've had to put away for a while. That's always the way though, isn't it? Or at least sometimes it is. ;)

I'm starting to learn the benefits of toning down my challenge commitments for this reason.

1/3 Neverwhere

I'm not going to make the three.

[Maria]

Ya, I doubt I'll make my goal. But at least we read a little and I enjoyed it! We still have time. You never know.

[Candiss]

I will probably make my goal for this challenge, as I kept it to 2 books, both of which are short; but I will almost surely not make all my other monthly and quarterly challenges.

Oh, well. I definitely think it's the experience that's important, not the number of books or a page count. :)
