I will be using these for my 2006 challenge – to have read at least 150 books of the 200 by the end of 2006. Should be easy enough

I’ve read one more since the last update – A tale of two cities (Dickens) taking me to 90/200. I’ve also got hold of ten more books, thanks to the generosity of bookcrossers worldwide, meaning I only need to find another 71 and I have 39 waiting to be read now. The ones I got are:

A Christmas Carol – Charles Dickens
Anne of Green Gables – LM Montgomery
Holes – Louis Sachar
The Princess Diaries – Meg Cabot
The Secret Garden – Frances Hodgson Burnett
The Shell Seekers – Rosamunde Pilcher
Jonathan Livingstone Seagull – Richard Bach
Kim – Rudyard Kipling
The Mayor of Casterbridge – Thomas Hardy
The Old Man & the Sea – Ernest Hemingway
