I think that's reasonable! It's more books than a non-reader lol


message 4: by Erin (new)

Erin (erincapobianco) | 64 comments Best of luck to you, however I think that you will read far more books than that...


message 5: by Shay (new)

Shay (icylilies) | 49 comments Good luck! My goal is fifty. If things go well and I actually read like I saw I will, then I might bump up my goal too :D


message 6: by Ashley (new)

Ashley (ashleyrenee) My goal is 100 as of 1/17 I have read 16 books. So I believe I can reach my goal.


message 7: by Cecilia (last edited Jan 18, 2012 07:25AM) (new)

Cecilia (darkita) | 5 comments My goal for this year is 40 books... When I was younger I spent almost every free minute reading, but right now is a little bit hard, specially if I have an urgent translation to deliver (I'm working translating a movie these days), that's why I stop reading that much, but I intent to increase that so... Hopefully I will exceed my goal for this year :).


message 8: by [deleted user] (new)

As much as you read, I know you will surpass that goal! Good luck with it.


message 9: by Rubi (new)

Rubi (shall813) | 67 comments Good luck, It is not hard goal to achieve, you will be working at it and enjoying the process the entire time.... this is normally my goal every year.... maybe next year I will try and step it up...

Thanks everyone for the the good luck wishes! Hopefully I will succeed lol but I think the hardest thing for me is finding a book I want to read next. Sometimes it takes me a day or two just to decide what I'm in the mood to read next.

But thanks everyone!


message 11: by Paula (new)

Paula (paulikita) good, luck, but it seems like a 100 books is a lot. I did 50 last year and that was hard :)

message 14: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 549 comments My goal is 250 books, believe it or not. Haha. So far I've done 9, almost 10 and 11. Just wondering, but how do I get an image for the book? I don't know how to post the cover.

When you go to write a comment look at the very top of that book and on the right hand corner it says add book/author click on that and a screen will pop up asking what book you want to add ? The link or book cover and the authors link or picture as well. I hope that helps you out I am the worst at giving directions lol


message 16: by Maddie (new)

Maddie (maddisonbruce) | 549 comments That's fine. Yeah, it is slightly confusing but I'll give it a go. Thanks! Mind if I try it out here?

Yeah when you click on that box just type in the book andthe authors name and it will come up and at the bottom it should say bookcover click that and click add then it should pop up on the comment box.
