hey.... in 09 I read BREAKING DAWN, ECLIPSE, NEW MOON, each one of them like in four days... also read SHIVER on 2 days (started reading on friday evening and finished that sunday afternoon). I read EVERNIGHT and STARGAZER... and JUST LISTEN by Sarah Dessen...I think that's all...
I read Breaking Dawn in a day. Yet other, longer books take me longer to read. Dunno why...I don't have an actual bookshelf. I have something that looks kind of like this
except mine is only two cubes. It doesn't store books too well. So some of them are in the living room, where we actually have shelves. And my (at the moment, ten) library books are in my bag at the end of the bed.
I have 3 shelves of books, about 3 feet long, then I have 2 piles of books next to my shelf, plus 2 books on my nightstand. Oh, and then I have a 1.5 foot tall cupboard full of books.
I keep my favorite books in my room in cubes sort of like Jordan's. The rest of books are in the downstairs' walking closet.
all my books are in my room's desk.... and the one i'm reading is on my bed bellow my pillow...

all my books are in a room used for studying. I only have one shelf that I take care a lot and I rearrange every... few months. but I don't have too many books...
Around 100. (Probably more, haha! I read somewhere that an aspiring writer should read a book every four days... about average for me!)
I read to many to count!! Im going to keep track this year though. Bookshelves: Booklover, My book shelves look exactly like yours!

I will take a photo and upload it in the PHOTOS section.
I think it would be awesome if we took a pic of our shelf to show every one.
Actually that sound weird.
But id be interested.
I'll post tomorow
Around a 100, give or take... I didn't really keep track, because I'm insanely lazy. XD

A picture of our bookshelf? Sounds interesting...
I read 44... I didn't read a single book from August to November :O I got a readersblock, it's sucked! My goal this year is 50 books :D
I read more than 63 :) ( i cant remeber all of them only the ones that are on goodreads ......and my goal is to read....lets say 150?????? i read on average at least 2 books a week :)
Mod
WOW thats a lot.
I read 1 book every week. That would be an approximate.
But later this year, im going on a holiday to Europe.
17 hours on the plane (probs. more) so i hope to read 2 book on the plane there and back.
I plan on reading books involving the countries im going too.
Such as ANGELS AND DEMONS-Rome
WIND IN THE WILLOWS-England
Thats all i can think of now.
WE are also flying from France to Rome, and catching the euro star form London to Paris. So hopefully i can get some reading in there.
Apart form the country to country travel, its 4 weeks of no reading...
Lucky...can you take me with you?????? and yer i read like two books a week on a school week but im on holidays and i think i can get through at least one book aday :) and thats WITH A LIFE :)
I usually read one book a week on school days, but on holidays I can read a book in 2 days in average.. :)
Mod
Im *nearly* half way through Skulduggery Pleasant 4, and ive been reading for almost 3 days.
ALSO, its holidays. I should be finishing it now, not coming to the halfway point...
lolz. I've got several books to read- i'm at 31 for my 2010 reads right now. It's sad, i should probably have more read since it's April.

Mod
I don't know what's wrong with me this year. I like, can't any books. Since the last two months I've finished one book and started about ten... Lol I think I probably won't end up reading as much a I wanted to this year. XD
Booklover23 wrote: "31? Thats good! Im only reading my 15th..."hahaa. i'm about to have 2-3 more done
and in the summer i'm gonna start my Massive Jane Austen book with P&P, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, and Persuasion. it's just too big to start now, cause i'd be lugging it around to all my classes. :D
Ooh, I have one of those. I hardly ever use it though...it's just too big. I have P&P and S&S in paperback form...perfect to toss into a purse or backpack... :)Let me go count mine :)
lolz. ya, i was at borders in like, the end of Feb/beginning of march, and we went to check out (my fam and i) and my dad showed me it- and it being only 7/8 bucks, my mom said i could get it. :D
Mod
Hopefully I will be starting late tomorow.
After i finish that i will read INK EXCHANGE (if i liked WL-I have them both at home)
AND if i didnt like WL I will read GONE
i counted 38 so far i dont know how i became such a book worm =]
i probably read over a hundred books. With some of them i read them again.
35 right now. of course, i'm reading 2 books at once, so that makes my 35, but im almost done w/ The Reckoning and then i can finish TBAM4S before heading on to my library books ^_^ hahaa
09 = about 120 (maybe more, can't remember) 10 = 34 books so far, and 2 which i'm currently reading and will be finished till the end of the week
