Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) I am somewhat new to this group and feeling my way. Love to calculate pages I read yearly and books as well. I have kept a list of every book I've read since I was 9 years old. I love to look over these index cards and remember both the book and where I was when I read it.

Do I need to inform the mod that I signed up here?

I’m a school teacher (start of the new school year tomorrow) and I read books to my students every day. I have already decided not to count these towards my 2020 reading challenge but what are people’s thoughts on including them as part my total for this challenge?


message 449: by Nancy from NJ (new)
