LOL! I know. I'm also doing a 52 in 52 challenge, so that's why there are so many, so quickly.
In general, my reading style goes like this:
I listen to audio books while doing other things (driving, housework, etc), which allows me to churn through a lot of books. When I've done too many in quick succession, I feel burnt out and revert to paperbacks. Do to the nature of needing time to sit down, hold a book and turn the pages, it takes me longer and gives me more space. When I feel like I'm taking too long, I'll go back to audios. It's a vicious circle of managing self-expectation!

I do the same thing.
Pretty sure Beowulf isn’t on the list. (it should be though)

I'm doing the 52 books in 52 weeks challenge also and finished those books for that. I mistakenly forgot to screen which were on the list before using those titles for this challenge. Perhaps I need to slow down and pay attention more? :-)
