Justine (paperbackheart) In the next [roughly:] eleven weeks, it is pretty important that I get through at least 45 books. (Edited from 20 because after two weeks I'm halfway there)
I found goodreads through flickr [home of my 365 days project:]. I got started on flickr for the 365 project because of my list to end all lists: 101 Things to do in 1001 Days. I took on the daunting task to read 300 books I have not already read [this is a problem for me as I love to reread and spent almost two months doing nothing but reading and rereading the Twilight series...oops:] in what amounts to 2.75 years.
I have compiled, in possibly a fit where I suffer delusions of grandeur - or maybe I'm just delusional - quite a list of TBR books in my first week here at goodreads. I'm hoping this will help me keep my head during the process instead of just grabbing books willy-nilly and wasting precious reading hours scouring amazon.com and my local borders.
Good luck to us all!

Justine -

Good luck on your reading, hopefully they won't be delusions of grandeur. It's really easy to get carried away making your TBR list, it's so much fun looking for books. :)


oh and good luck on your 101 things to do in 1001 days!

Justine (paperbackheart) 3. The Princess Bride

About a sixth of the way there! Not bad for four days. The more challenges I give myself, the higher chance I have of completing things, I guess.

Justine (paperbackheart) 30. Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World

2/3 of the way there! East of Eden really slowed me down, but I have some plane rides coming up that will (hopefully) help me make it up.
