William Jorgensen (will_jorgensen) | 16 comments Hey, to all the new comers!..

I didn't get any reading done this weekend at all :(.

I am not happy about this, and this means my week is going to suck, simply because I didn't read anything this weekend.

Sigh,

Well, you'd best do some now William..;D But don't let it upset you, just sneak some in when you can:)


message 2142: by Danielle (last edited Aug 15, 2011 01:58AM) (new)

Danielle | 33 comments Hello, I only joined the group today and only joined Goodreads yesterday. It all started when I downloaded the iphone app...I had been using spreadsheets to keep track of my reading, but a barcode scanner is so much easier,lol. I read an awful lot,my personal best was in 2009 when I read 118 books, but in 2010 I only managed 48. I read all types of books, and am working my way through 1001 books, not very conscientiously though, because there are lots of them I just don't want to read, so far I have read about 165 on the list.
I love to read food memoirs and foodie type books, and memoirs by people who have moved to another country-mostly France, Italy or Japan. Recently I discovered William Gibson(Neuromancer) and fell in love with his books so you can see I have wide ranging interests, with the exception of romance books(I loathed The Notebook!)and it would be a rare thing for me to read anything from a current best seller list.

★ Jess  | 3071 comments Welcome Danielle! You'll find this site very addicting!
