How many books have you read this year?

[frankie]

47. I'm going to end with an all-new-low number this year, but I've come to terms with it The only way is up! 

[Nollaig]

101. I've only finished one book in the last two or three weeks, which is terrible. I'm just not picking up books, and I need to start.

[frankie]

48 now.      

[Lau_Lou]

75.

[Talisman]

I am on book no 78 at the moment and hope to get to 90 by the end of the year. I may have to choose from short books between now and then though !

[Madeleine]

Just started number 44 - I'm also going to read a couple of shorter books to try to get the body count up a bit!

No where near enough, 27. It will be the lowest number of books read in a year for me since I was a teenager which is very disappointing.

I've only read maybe 49 books or so, and it's the lowest number for me since 2007... It sucks, but you've had a really busy year, and I've also had to adjust to a new job and stuff. So we can't really blame ourselves, can we.

We can't but it's still quite frustrating. I really miss the days where I could spend all my days off just reading and drinking tea all day

 

Hopefully the few weeks over Christmas can give me an opportunity to do this at least for at least a few days.

[Madeleine]

Just started number 46, hope to crack 50 by year's end.

[Nollaig]

I'm barely staying on track for my Goodreads challenge at 108. Every time I see it drop down to '1 behind schedule' I grab a book and start reading

[Madeleine]

I'm just about to finish number 48, and have started 49, so should just scrape 50!

[Ben]

#97. Comfortably on track for my 100 this year. I mean, I read 112 last year but that was also the first year that I'd hit 100 so I think I'll be keeping to that same target for many years to come now (still a challenge for me, but perfectly doable).

[Talisman]

I am about halfway through book no 85, so should be on track to manage my goal of 90 books this year.

[Madeleine]

Just started  number 50!

[Lau_Lou]

I have been reading fairytales so my number has gone up to 102.

[frankie]

52. My lowest total since 2007. 

[Talisman]

I will finish my 95th today - it only has another half an hour to complete.  

[bobblybear]

I have read 71 books this year, my highest in a long time. I know it's more about quality rather than quantity, but I still like having a high number.

[Michelle]

47 books this year, plus some graphic novels at the beginning of the year. I have quite a few unfinished as well, two books I'm in the middle of, plus a few I may or may not get back to. 

[Madeleine]

Managed to hit 51 last night, so better than last year's total of 48.

[lauraloves]

I've managed 37 out of a goal of 52 so not brilliant but I've had so much going on this year that this feels not too bad. Fingers crossed for 52 next year

[Onion Budgie]

28 this year.  That's five fewer than last year, but I read more graphic novels in 2015.    It's a tiny number compared to everyone else here!

[shades]

only 5 or 6 this year, but a couple of really long ones, and editing for a few friends, have been super busy

 Wow that's crazy, wish I could saty that deep in thought all year, I love the solitude of constantly being in a book
