I'm not sure I could read so many different stories simultaneously! I'm not sure that I would even want to. I think the plots and characters would all get jumbled in my head and I might confuse a subtle significant piece of a story or even miss it all together. Why do you read all these books at the same time? I would prefer nurturing and contemplating each one individually.

The change in storyline and genre keep me interested and keep me from burning out on a boring book. :)

The plots and styles are so different, you don't tend to get them confused.
My goals today are to finish:

Hope you made your goals! I really like The Name of the Wind, but not until about a third of the way into it. As for Illuminae, I like it well enough, but not sure I entirely got the hype, so maybe when you are done you can explain it to me! LOL

For Today:

Dichotomy girl? I just finished the first book of the series yesterday and liked it a lot.
My goals today are:
Start.
Read 100 pages.
Read 30 pages.
Today's goal is to finish both Assuming Names: A Con Artist's Masquerade and Etiquette & EspionageThen I'll be starting Insurgent
@ Trinity - I just reread the Covenant series before staring the spin-off series. Is this your first time reading it?@Katriann - How are you liking
? It's one of my favorites, but it tends to be one that people love or hate.@Kikijanika - I am about 80% finished with
. (I didn't finish it yesterday like I was supposed to, instead I finished a whole different book, lol) I really loved the first book, and I'm really enjoying the 2nd book, though it is not AT ALL what I was expecting. It went in an unusual direction and is quite dark. But thus far, I am really liking it.
I can't decide if I was a bad girl or not. I only finished one of my 4 goals, but I started and finished an entire book and novella that wasn't part of my goal, so I still got lots of reading done!
25-80 Pages
50-100 Pages
25-50 Pages
(Audiobook) 25 PagesRandom, because I can't decide what I really want to read today: 100 Pages
Total 275-355 Pages

I think I like this author's writing style and the world he's building, but now it's getting a lot more interesting. So I hope this continues on into the next book. As for Illuminae, I'm loving it so far and I'm about 1/3 of the way through!

Is 1300 Pages usual for you, or is today a special day????

I'm just hoping I hit my goal today. I feel so far behind, but I've been doing work stuff a lot this week and finally feel like I can take a night off haha. Are you done with it already?
I want to try to finish 3 chapters of
today. I've been reading this book for awhile now, my baby has kept me a lot busier than I thought it would. It's also my birthday so have family commitments with that today.
Today's challenge is to get 50% in
and to start
Gotta get through all my library books.
Good luck you guys!! My goals today:
Finish (63%)
Start and reach 25%
Good luck everyone! You guys have some ambitious goals for today. :)
Today I plan to finish
so far I've managed to read 140 pages today. I only have 50 left. Should be able to do it.
Didn't really read much since my last post. Although, today I have no plans at all so all I'm going to be doing today is catch up with my books!Basically the same goals as the day before:
Finish (54%) DONE
Start and reach 25% -- reached 10%
I'm going to try and get as far as I can in
, I'm about 1/5 through. Not sure I can finish it, but I have a feeling it will grab me when I get much further and I won't be able to put it down.
My 5 year old has been sick for the past 3 days, so making any goals I set may be entirely out of my reach. But I'll try some little ones:Audiobook:
