Entries

Last Books  — 3 days ago

So I’m posting this almost seven months after the fact, but:

49. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by J.K. Rowling
50. Quidditch Through the Ages by J.K. Rowling

I finished these two at a New Year’s Eve party while I waited for the scotch to kick in.

No longer 2007...  — 3 weeks ago

Seeing as it's no longer 2007...  — 1 month ago

I’m going to technically say I finished my 50 books in 2007 because I am counting children’s books I read for my lit class.

Only went up to 30+ books  — 5 months ago

Even with all the science fiction, financial, technical books, I only read about 30+ books. It’s really tough, finishing roughly one book a week, especially when most of the books are of the type that can’t be finished in one sitting (the financial and technical ones).

Oh well, trying again for another shot in 2008 now…

Neh.  — 5 months ago

I only read 27 this year. Maybe next year.

failure  — 5 months ago

I should not allow that failure becomes an obstacle in my way. As 2007 has passed away already and obviously i couldnt complete this goal not even close to it so i am giving up from this goal, actually even if i insist to accomplish “Read 50 books in 2007” goal, the 2007 had already given up to me.
But i still have the 2008, my last hope in the middle of big failures.
