As of today, our little group has read...893/2,012
WOW!!! I bet we hit 1000 next week!
You think? Could be, Susan. ☺
Sure. We've been averaging about 100 books per week and 100 would give us 993. So what's 7 more? LOL
This is great! I wonder how far over we'll go.
As of the end of February:937/2,012
I know I'm late, but I added a shelf to the challenge.
Great, rameau! Every
Woohoo! We're doing great!
Looks like we might make this one, Susan. ☺
It does look that way!
I shouldn't count my chicks b/f they hatch.
Half in two months? That's better than good, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
Sorry, I'm late with the Sunday update. (Had a migraine.) Woohoo! We're past the half-way mark! 1,012/2,012
WOOHOO!!!! I literally squealed when I saw that! I knew we could reach 1000 by this week!!! Good job us!!!
You were right, again, Susan! ☺
This is awesome! What do we do when we reach it early? Shall we see how far over we can go?
I don't know, Lara. Heather wants to double it. What do you think?
Lisa Kay wrote: "I don't know, Lara. Heather wants to double it. What do you think?"Given how quickly we reached this goal, I think we could easily double it. We might even be able to triple it. Especially if people get more reading done in the summer.
Updating for Lisa Kay this week. We're still powering through:1,153/2,012
So many books in such a short period of time. I think we might have an addiction. Not that it's a bad thing. lol
I think you're right about the addiction. It could be a worse one though LOL
Sunday Update:1,326/2,012
Wow, look at us just swimming along. I'm predicting the 3rd week in April.
Oh, we're making predictions now? Hmmmm... That's a good guess, Heather. So, I'll go for the forth week in April.
Talk about a group of prolific readers! so cool :-)
Cindy, there is a hyperlink in the very first post to this thread. You can follow those directions, designating a specific bookshelf for this challenge, or - if you don't want the bother of that - just post your books here, and we'll count them into the total.
I feel like I've slacked off in my reading. Now I feel a bit more motivated to pick it up again. We're quite the book-loving group!
Are you counting books twice if they are posted here and kept on a bookshelf? I have been updating my list on this thread (post #19) since I have to do the same list for two other groups anyway, but I have set up a bookshelf and Goodreads is counting for me. I can stop updating in this thread if it causes problems.
No, we aren't counting books twice, Kirsten. Actually, I didn't realize you were posting to Post #19. You can certainly continue to post there, if you like. However, you don't have to do the "double work" if you don't want to; I only offered that as an option for people to don't know how to join the challenge - or don't want to add an extra bookshelf.

Also, I am upping my goal in this challenge since my first goal was a conservative estimate.
Great! More books for us. ☺ BTW, I commented on you challenge page, Kirsten. Did you see it?
hey LK! *waves* last guess for the hangman, would you do it?
I did it. Feeling a little blood thirty tonight, I guess.
It is a game in NBRC, CaroB.
LK, thanks for liking my review. Did you want to read the book?
