Tabitha Ormiston-Smith Hey Katy! This year we've set ourselves the same challenge at 300! I bet you get there first though :)

Maybe. I'm slacking right now, watching Buffy and not reading. I have a blog tour in a couple weeks so I'll be reading those soon enough, but for now? I just... am enjoying Buffy. Rather cathartic, y'know?

Ronyell Wow! 300 books! Good luck!!!

Actually, I'm being lazy this year...


message 15: by Katy (new)

Katy AND now I'm being REALLY lazy, but at least I have an excuse... :-) I've heard lots of TV will shrink cancer, so I'm going to try the TV Cure...


message 16: by Katy (new)

Katy Well, I've lowered my goal significantly. I've been averaging about two books a month, so I'll have to step things up to make even the small goal I've set. I just can't concentrate very well - I need to keep my mind noisy to stop me from being scared and to keep me positive.


message 17: by [deleted user] (new)

Don't feel bad. I lowered mine down to just 30. Can't concentrate at all last few months with all the stuff going on.

*hugs* I hope things ease up for you. Take care of yourself!

They will. Take care of yourself too!

Katy the challenge is for yourself. If the original 300 books is no longer working for you & the 75 seems a better fit. Go with it whatever the reason. It's a personal challenge not a chore ;) Do what works best for you. If TV/Buffy is what works right now it is what it is. Stay positive.


message 21: by Katy (new)

Katy Thanks, Jeanny. This cancer stuff is wiping me out, the chemo makes me so tired. Speaking of, I really need to go to bed!
