How many books have you read this year?

[Talisman]

I finished no. 61 yesterday. Hoping to get to 100 by the end of the year, but I think that might be pushing it.

47 so far, though most of them are graphic novels and comics. In fact, the real total of only 15

A lot of mine are short stories and even children's books. Reading is reading. They all count

Thanks! I've really got into manga and (slightly less on) graphic novels recently, and I love some of children's books, especially ones with beautiful illustrations.

38

[Brian.]

I have just finished number 65.

[karen.d]

I'm on my 26th book of the year so far.

[Onion Budgie]

Wobbling at 21.  Should be closer to 30 by the end of the year.

[Hayley]

I'm at 29, which beats my total last year, but I'd have to get reading really fast to make it to my target of 50!

[chesilbeach]

154 so far, and four on the go at the moment, although my reading always slows down from October until after Christmas, so I think I’ll probably end up around the 170 mark by the end of the year, which I think would be my second best year ever. 

[Brian.]

Holy moly, that is a huge number.

[chesilbeach]

I know, but it’s my main hobby so I read a lot during the week - lunch breaks, evenings and weekends, I listen to audiobooks on my commute and I never go anywhere without at least one book, so any waiting time is always occupied with some reading.  Plus, my sewing machine has been out of action this year, so I haven’t had that to split my hometime either.

[frankie]

I read my 28th book this year. This year I'm hoping to make it past 35 books, as that was last year's sucky total! 

[Madeleine]

40 so far.

[muggle not]

I have read 49 so far.

I am stuck on #50 (The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich) as it is 30,000+ pages on my kindle. I think I may soon ditch it which is something I rarely do.

[Little Pixie]

208 for me, hoping to get to 250 by the end of the year.

Are you still reading the  Witches of the Midwest series?

[Nollaig]

I'm on 54 out of 75, don't think I'll be hitting my target! Mad to think I used to read over a hundred books a year, but that was before cross stitch took up a chunk of my spare time.

[Hayley]

208 @Little Pixie!? How fast do you get through a book? Please teach me your secret! 

 

I've now read 30, which means I'd have to read 20 books in about 50 days to reach my target of 50 books...

[Talisman]

I am up to 90 now, and am 4 books ahead of my target for the year of 100.

I haven`t read the last two books - Witch Interrupted, and Close Encounters of the Witchy Kind - I`ll read them the next time there`s a Kindle Unlimited deal.

 

Are you up to date with them ?

I read a lot of cosy mysteries, which are around 220-250 pages per book ; that`ll take me around 2/12 to 3 hrs per book. I do neglect other things in order to spend more time reading ( and go to bed earlier to read, too ).  

 

Good luck reaching 50 !
