read 100 books in 2005

I don’t know how many books I read. Most likely more than 100, but I just couldn’t keep up with posting and journals and all. I am not setting reading goals this year. I will just read.

Easy. In fact, I read 113.

Wonder how many I’ll have by the end of 2006..

I made it to 96. I’m trying again in 2006.

too many books too little time

But trying to write them all down wasn’t. I missed so many books that I read and then returned to the library.

I think I probably did, but I didn’t keep track, and now it is 2006.

Hahahaha I doubt I read that much books I wish I did…I will try for 2006!

So.. am now testing the Give up button ;o)

I’ve only read 75 books, not that bad… I just didn’t realise I would be busy during the first school semester. And I’ve also read books in spanish, english and german, so it took me more time.

Well, I fell about 25 books short of my goal. I think in my favor I spent a lot of time reading magazines that would have helped. I should have started earlier, and kept a more constant pace. I was kinda surprised I was able to read so many books in december. Reaching for the goal has helped me get back into a reading habit ( I hope). It definitely got me to start reading a wider variety of books and forced me to look for interesting reads.
For 2006 I plan to try again. I know there are some MAJOR obstacles in the way, but I think I can do it. I think a little forward planning would help, a list of books I plan to read will help me get started. That way when I’m done, I can just grab the next on the list, as opposed to the debating I did this time around. I think I’ll try and find different subject that I haven’t explored before for the next round!
