It's not too late for me to jump on this bandwagon, right?

@Gisela - Yay! Do I include the books I've already read this year, or just since I've joined this group?
You count all the books you've read for the year :)
Awesomesauce, Kyra! Thanks for helping us out. ☺
Sunday Update (includes Catherine's 70 books)
4,259/5,000
Big jump this week! Thanks, Kyra!
Seriously! What should our new goal be? LOL!
Guess-ta-mating here, CaroB, but it looks like me might break 7,000. Unless my house springs more leaks. LOL!
That's fantastic considering our initial goal was 2012!!

Happy to help! ;)
Happy to help! ;)
wowza meowza! We're doing GREAT!
We are currently at the 85% mark! Recalculating our weekly average we have read on average 142 books a week this year. At this rate in 5 more weeks we'll meet our goal.
Ok, not sure WHY I hadn't seen this before, but I'm in. Fortunately I keep a yearly total sheet going, so I'll just post here. I am presently at 157 for the year.
Thanks for the update, Lisa Kay! Woot!
July End-of-Month Update (includes Catherine's 70 + Ann aka Iftcan = 157 books)
4,600/5,000
Wow! That's amazing!
I know! All I can figure is that some people must have done end-of-the-month updates. **shrugs**
I added the rest of my books that I read this year onto my shelf, but I don't think it was that many.
This makes me curious... What's the goal going to be for next year? Certainly more than 2,013!! ;)

I just joined this. I put a shelf up for it, but I thought I'd give a number here too. I've read 161 books so far this year.
Ohhhhhhhhh, Cassandra! Thank you. ☺
Lisa Kay wrote: "Ohhhhhhhhh, Cassandra! Thank you. ☺"You're quite welcome. :) No doubt I'll read more than that before the year is over (I read way too fast, sometimes!). Do you want me to post updates here, or will the total change as long as I add those books to that shelf?
Cassandra, the total will change as long as you tag the books with the shelf you designated. Thanks again!
Sunday Update (includes Catherine's 71 + Ann aka Iftcan's 157 books)
4,807/5,000
Woohoo! We are wiping out our target number in more ways than one!
Wow! Congratulations everyone!
Yay! Are we resetting the goal then?
I believe so. To what, I'm not sure yet.
Do you think we can get to 7000 before the 31st Dec? Or is that too ambitious?
Yeah, let's up it to 7,000!
You guys are making me nervous LOL
Miss Gisela will be doing the Sunday update soon. Have you posted your books?
Last call to post your books! I'll update in about an hour!

Only 8 more books to go! We are so AWESOME!

LMBO Gisela!! Love the clip in the spoiler!!

Awesomeness!!!! Thanks for the numbers Gisela ☺
