What I Have Read This Year
This was previously posted to On The Nightstand
So, I was looking at some posts on Absolute Write where members were discussing books that they had read, and their goal to read 100 books. It inspired me to have a look at all the books I have read this year.
According to my OpenOffice spreadsheet, at this point in time, I have read 43 books so far this year. That comes to about five books a month, which isn’t bad at all when I think about it compared to my life and timetable.

I’m too scared to do that, for fear the size of the spreadsheet would cause my computer to crash.
Dude! And I thought I was reading a lot this year. I’ve read about 20 books so far. But then again, I am a slow reader.
@Kathleen: You should see some of the bigger book bloggers, the ones that get sent books to read and review. They’d have even more!
