That's an awful lot of books! I wonder how many pages I've read this year.

I've hit a little bit of a wall. I am not liking the book that I am reading, so I am not motivated to finish it. But I'm way too close to the end to give up on it completely! lol

So I've come to notice I fell behind on my reading. I should be so much further in my books. Someone motivate me! lol

Llewellyn, Yeah I tend to read a lot when there's not much else to do. lol. I finished another book today, so I'll go add that to my list later.
I am trying to get to over 100 by the end of the year.

I've had books like that too. lol. Dragon Keeper was such a bore. lol. Only about half of it was enjoyable. I kept at it though.

Syrion
Just keep at it.

I ended up reading roughly 95% of the book, skimming the next 4%, then reading the last 1%. I just couldn't take it. I went to Wikipedia to read the summary there to make sure I didn't miss anything in that 4% that I skipped. But I guess the person writing the review couldn't take anymore either since they stopped writing their summary mid-book and mid-sentence.... I'm going to count it since I read 96% of it and since it was pretty long. So I'm at 36 now.

Ugh. Soo annoying.
Well I finished three and a half books today!
Now I can actually focus on the new series I wanted to read.
So far Gail Carriger is a rather enjoyable writer.

Min: I am keeping at it. I guess with work and such I just kind of got really busy. Looking at books two days straight tends to make my head hurt and not want to read.

Syrion
Good!
I get that way too. Seems like I can only read a lot for one day, then I have to get sucked into something else. XD *goes to edit list*

It's horrible when it happens. Now I need to find my glasses again. u.u They ran away on me.

37 out of 50. GoodReads doesn't have two of the manga that I read listed yet, so they're showing me at 35, which bugs me because I'm kind of anal.

I powered through half a series today, and finished a different book entirely last Monday.

Finally getting back into the groove of this. Between work and school starting up, reading is the one distressing thing I've got.

I'm no where near my 5O books, but I hope to get there before January.

I swear I'll be the one to let the world know what you've done to me.
