A waste of time?

I’ve decided to stop this. There may be books on the list that I will eventually read but there are so many on the list that just do not appeal to me. And there are so few hours in a day and days in a lifetime.
I will continue to read and listen to lots but it will be my choice and not of others.
Perhaps I should start another ‘thing’ called read more



23 read so far

Ive read 1 and 4 so just aquired 2 and 3 audio books which will be my next listens.



Going to listen to them

As I drive for a living, most of my book ‘reading’ is done through audio books. My main reading is of Sci-fi and fantasy books. I have a ton of Asimov to get through and just finishing a Frederik Pohl series. Maybe, I will alternate my books with one from this list.
There are some long books in this list though and I can imagine many hours listening for a lot of them. Looking through the list, there are many that I really don’t fancy, but who knows, they may well surprise me.
By the way. I have only read 21 of the 100 so far and Terry Pratchett was a big help on getting to that low score.
