Thanks, Gigi. Some of them are Harlequin Presents, which I read in hours. Becoming active in GRs had slowed my reading of books substantially. I'm reading reviews instead! A lot of reviews!
Lisa I love reading YOUR reviews. They are so clever. Woohoos to you for reading so many books already this year.
Thank you, Michele! That's sweet of you. I like yours too. Short, insightful, and to the point!
Wow!!! 79 books already!! Keep up the good work!!
Thanks, Ronyell. I joined late and had to back-track what I'd read so far this year - which was more of a pain in the arse than I expected. Luckily GR tracked a lot of them or I posted in different groups.
Yeah, it is such a pain trying to go through all the books you have read this year! Luckily, I posted a "read in 2011" shelf in my bookshelf so that way I would be able to keep up with what I read for this year!
Great job Lisa, you're way ahead of schedule!
Thanks, Christine! I'm almost to 100! I am so excited. I have even been thinking about which book I want to read as my hundredth; kinda silly, but true. :)
Wowowow! I'm impressed - and so jealous. I cannot seem to catch up and every time I go to my homepage it tells me how behind I am, lol.
Well, Juliana, I'm not working right now, so I have extra time on my hands. I usually read about a book a day; however, GoodReads has had me reading reviews instead of books, LOL!

I'm seriously impressed. You've read 112 already? And it's not even June yet!
Sans, I used to read about a book a day...but now I read the reviews on GoodReads (and the comments,LOL!).
Wow Lisa Kay! You're going to have this blitzed by the end of the year!
Good job!!!
Thanks, everyone! It was a great feeling. I even worried about which books would be 200 and 201, LOL! Can you tell I'm a serious reader?
WoW! Congratulations, thats a SHLODE of books!!
Thanks! I need to up my goal, but I don't know what to put it to. December is always a busy month...
Okay, I increased my goal. We'll see if I can do it though the busy upcoming months.
Congrats Lisa Kay ;)
Thanks, Dorsey & Dhes! ☺ I don't know if I want to reset my goal again or just enjoy re-reads, LOL!
250 Books is alot of books....wow!! I reached my goal of 150 and reset to 170 a couple of weeks ago, if I reach my goal again not sure that I will reset a 2nd time.
I have heard that if you re-read a book in the next years, they take it off this year. Eek! I don't know if this is true, but I thought I'd have a buffer. I would hate for it to look like I didn't reach my goal.
Really...I thought it would just duplicate your (read) books.
I bet, for the sake of challenge count, if you re-read but listed a different edition, it would count and not subtract from previous years.
Good idea Dhes....I will need to keep that in mind too ;)
Are you gonna shoot for 275? December 31st is pretty far away for a voracious reader like you. LOL

Thanks, ladies. ☺ It has been a great year.
Congrats on reaching your goal Lisa!You read a lot of books!
Thanks, Pamela! I'm not going to make 300, though. Maybe next year.
Congratulations, Lisa Kay!
