2016 Reading Challenge

[Gravy]

I'm at 73%!

Well done!

So am I!

I'm tied with gali?!
I never thought I'd see the day
Even with the difference in our goals

Nice! Way to go!

You'll pass me by again soon

I am aiming for 100 books this year. I have to wait three days before I can set the reading goal though.

Good luck!

My reading goal isn't quite as ambitious as most. As a mom with four boys and a baby girl my time is limited. I do enjoy reading and hope to have 20 books read before the end of the year.

This is my first year to start keeping track of how many books I read. I do my best to remember to update my currently reading shelf but sometimes I forget. I also have a goal set for 100. I hope to write more reviews this year than I normally do.

Can't wait to get started

I never thought about a reading challenge. I think I will set one for 150 books by January 1, 2017. I learned speed reading in college, maybe that skill will come in handy with this.

Well, my goal was to read 50 books in 2016. But, now it's September and I'm on book 51 so yay!

Great Idea... I don't know how many I have read so far this year. But I can go back and count. Not all of them may be on my shelves though so would take some time to get them on the selves here as well.... Time what is that?? I suffer from a tremendous lack of time. But here is to trying... after I get my bathroom painted.

So here we are in October and I am nowhere close to my goal. Nor will I be this year. Turns out the creative juices once unleashed do not stop flowing! I have spent more time writing than I have reading!

[Gravy]

I set myself a side goal of finishing ten percent of my total goal every month (putting me way ahead of my actual goal ). So far, I've kept up with it (barely).
I've read more this year than I think I ever have!

Thanks in part to graphic novels and plays

I'm really bad at keeping track of what I have read through the year. I need to make a list that I can add and tick off as I go. I'm a mood reader, sometimes I can go for a month without reading, and then one day it's like I can't read enough and go through a book a day. Altho, those book a day, days are over now that I have an attention seeking toddler.

I have just gotten back into reading a lot this year. The past couple of years have been filled with buying a new house, getting married, raising 2 puppies and overtime at my job. I've averaged about 1 book a month but I've gone through lulls because I couldn't decide what book to read next. Since it is toward the end of the year, I would say my goal is to read 3 more books. I have some books on my reading list that are shorter in length so I might tackle those first.

Well done! I almost finished my total goal as well, but with some children and YA's books.

[nyxhia]

For this year my goal is 25. I'm at 80%

Love this aspect of onlinebookclub.org! I usually use goodreads to track my yearly reading goals but I have found I am on this site a lot more nowadays so it's much more convenient to track here! Thanks Scott!
