Wow, 150 books is impressive! My goal is 100 (and to keep a record of them this year).

lol I knew that would frighten you. I have a lot more green and blue books than I do red books.

It’s improving. My head no longer feels like it’s going to explode every time I stand up. The coughing is still making me a bit lightheaded.

Reading 50 of my own books feels like a LOT. Which is kind of weird when you think about it.

We used to have a lot of red books. Now we don’t. I think when we moved, we left a lot of red behind. I like red books.

Also, 50 of your own books? GAH! You’re frightening me!

Feel better soon! That sounds like it is a nasty bug, hope it clears up and you can stand up straight without too much agony, very soon.

Good luck with your reading – I have determined to read at least 20 of the many, many books on my own shelves awaiting my attention. I’d like to reach 50 but we will see. Good luck with your charming coloured selections

Everyone is different. I don’t make lists of books to read because I hate it (which is why I don’t do reading challenges…well why I don’t do them often) but I like to make goals. If it’s not for you don’t do it.

Goals are not fences. But if you think so don’t make any.

First, hope you feel better quick. Hardly anybody enjoys being sick

Second, what does it do for you to make these kinds of lists for books to read? I’ve never really understood these kind of “lists”. They always seemed like fences to me, big, spiky, poisoned fences of doom! For me, the thought of having a “to do” list of reading takes all the joy out of it. The only list I have is one I call “books I want to read that I haven’t yet” which is just the most recent books to have caught my eye at the library that I don’t have time for yet.
