Simply K Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) Hello and welcome to Simply K's book log, aptly named Simply Books. I will be using this thread to keep track of the books I've read, the books I want to read and any challenges I participate in. I have three main goals for the foreseeable future... To read a minimum of 100 books per year. To read 1,000,000 pages. To read all the books listed in The Ultimate Teen Book Guide 2010. Please note that all three of these challenges started May 1, 2011 and other than the first one there are no time constraints. So, without further ado, let the reading commence.

Simply K Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) The Ultimate Teen Book Guide 2010 Rather than list all 750+ books featured on this list and then crossing them off as I go I've decided to only list them once I've actually read them. Books Read Harry Potter Series - J K Rowling (7 books) Edited June 11, 2011 by Simply K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Crikey, that's a lot of pages! I think I average about 30,000 pages a year. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simply K Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 It is a lot but it's not a race as such. It's just something that I thought would be interesting to keep track of. Plus it will be interesting to see how long it takes me and how many books it will take me to reach that figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
