Welcome, Hilde! Hope you'll join us next year too! [Link to next year's challenge is under the thread "Looking Ahead to 2021"

[Hilde]

Yes, I have signed up.
I got hooked on history books at a young age with an inherrited book, and in 1999 I started to write down the books I read, since answering a questionary where one Q was how many books I read in a year was and the max to choose was 12! That year I read 161.

With checking the rules, I am going to write down which books I buy in 2021 too so I don't add any I shouldn't.
As I said in a post, I have more books than registered on Goodreads almost all are on a Norwegian similar site, bokelskere.no/Embla and from time to time I work my way down the list. I am on 2004 so far. I also have a shelf for library books too to not mix them up.

I have also read over 100 library books this year, and that is due to 2 factors.
#1 - In July I read by Agnes-Margrethe Bjorvand and decided to read all her children books having only finished 2 series as a child, read 3 more partially, and none at all of the 2 last series.

#2 - I decided to read alle the books in the series 'Donald Duck & co - de komplette årgangene' - , this being the first book. I stopped reading them when my local library stopped buying them, but this time around I'll get them all, borrowing one year at a time. I have read up till 1955, I have the books for 1956 ready to read. I also add them as I get them from the library. A friend told me he used to have many of them, but as I said to him: I only want to read them - not own them.

Thanks, I'll start at the beginning next year, in stead of per month, being so late in the year.
