“On average:
This goal takes 5 years to complete”

Seriously? People read 200 books a year? I’ve been feeling pretty good about almost hitting a tenth of that this year. (Which still doesn’t hold a candle to the 37 novels I read in 2008, but then again, I took the summer off from…responsibility.)

Darkness Calls (Hunter Kiss, Book 2)

August 2009

Wondering if I should break my original rule of not counting rereads of books I originally read before I started the challenge. I don’t know, the point for me is sort of to read ridiculous amounts of books that I haven’t read before, so I guess not.

Currently reading: Thud! by Terry Pratchett, This Is Your Brain on Music by Daniel J. Levitin.
