Bridget's Quiet Corner  (chaptersandscreens) I will be reading at least 40 books this year. I will add my progress so far when I get to my computer. :-)

Edit
Because I've been on such a roll, I was able to push it up to 45...in hopes I will be able to move it back to 50. :-)

2nd Edit 11/25/16
I was able to push it back up to 50! And now I am at 51 books but won't be pushing it up again because 50 was my original goal and it allows me to still relax read..even more so now. :)

Tammy Davis (portia2012) | 118 comments Awesome. I think that I said I would read 50 or 60. I have read 5 so far. Hope to make it up when I get the internet at home in a few weeks.

I had it at 50, but I hit a slump for a few months. I had only read one book a month, and I had to push to read that. So, if I continue on the reading path, I may be able to up it again. :-)

40. Going, Going, Ganache by Jenn McKinlay
41. Sugar and Iced by Jenn McKinlay

I've been reading, but kept forgetting to update. Haven't finished as many books as I liked to have finished, but I have been reading. I guess I just needed books that I wanted to read, and I had mostly classics for a while..and just didn't want to read classics. I finally, after a month of waiting for it, got most of the books I had ordered..so now, I can read more. Even though I ordered two earlier this month, and only got one as of yesterday (Thursday 10/13), even though it said it was due to me Tuesday. sigh. USPS has been giving me issues lately! LOL (I can kind of laugh now but it is frustrating)
