Challenge: 50 books in 2010

Posted on the January 26th, 2010 under love& life,politics & pop culture by Sue

In lieu of doing the 101 things in 1001 days challenge, I thought I’d try doing a series of mini challenges. For more information, please visit the challenge page.

Challenge Title: 50 books in 2010

About: 2009 was the first year in which I kept track of the books I read. By the end of the year, I’d read an embarrassingly low number of books, which I found disappointing. I’ve always enjoyed reading; I guess I had a hard time finding books I liked or got distracted or something over the course of the year. In 2010, my goal is to read 50 books. I think that’s doable: it’s about a book a week.

Rules:

  • I must read 50 books by 11:59 on 31 December 2010.
  • All books must be read entirely in 2010; books started in 2009 and completed in 2010 and/or books started in 2010 but finished in 2011 DO NOT count.
  • If I end up reading the same book more than once in 2010, it only counts once.
  • I must update the list below & include a Goodreads link every time I finished a book
