I’m finally finished with my 50 book challenge as of today. I’ve finished off with my last book (which took me longer than is standard for me to read), and I am now fully finished with this challenge. It’s nice to see that personal challenge off of my profile page. I’ll think up another challenge for the rest of the year, probably, and I certainly won’t stop reading books. Let’s see how far I can exceed my own expectations!

The final five books were:

46. The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis *
47. Life with Father by Clarence Day
48. Life with Mother by Clarence Day
49. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling *
50. Emily of New Moon by L.M. Montgomery

I feel very satisfied at my list and I look forward to seeing how my reading goes for the rest of the year.

I hit 45 books read yesterday. That’s 90%!

42. The Magician’s Nephew by C.S. Lewis
43. Rococo by Adriana Trigiani
44. Summer Blowout by Claire Cook
45. Fragile Heritage by Sara Hylton

I’m set to finish one more book this week, and I think I can get halfway through another. I’ll be finished with this for sure within the next two weeks. Hoorah! Then it’ll be time to decide whether I’m going to make a new challenge for myself.

I’m up to 41 books, which sets me at 82% completion. I’m in progress reading Fragile Heritage by Sara Hylton, which I’ve read before, so that will be a quick read. I’m scheduled to read The Magician’s Nephew by C.S. Lewis, and part of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling, so I will finish at least two more books this week, with the possibility of my picking another off the shelf to finish as well before the week is out.

38. Pretties by Scott Westerfeld
39. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling *
40. Specials by Scott Westerfeld
41. The Horse and His Boy by C.S. Lewis *

Rereads denoted with an asterisk.

I’m flying along with this 50 book challenge. It makes me feel pretty good about my reading habits!

For what it’s worth to people out there, I already have an account at Shelfari, GoodReads and LibraryThing and the only one I actually use is at LibraryThing. I do not care for the other sites. Please don’t advertise them at me. Thanks!
