Thanks, Natasha but I don't really deserve the credit. Microsoft Excel does! LOL

Lynlee4 | 134 comments I'm like Angela - waiting to see what everyone else does before asking questions :P
I've copied the list onto a document and have started making notes. There are a lot of duplicate shelves and a few that I know I won't touch.

My intention is to use only books I already have.


message 16: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie Tuell (booksloveme) you'd be surprised some of the shelves that a book is on.


message 17: by Andrew (new)

Andrew (sir_reads_a_lot) I"m totally Game for this!! Wohoo!

message 21: by Betty (new)

Betty (nightreader) I'll give it a shot, but as a reviewer I often am reading unreleased books that take priority (deadlines), so I'll see how it goes. You may have touched on this, but can I count any on the shelves that I've already read recently?


message 22: by Lanica (new)

Lanica | 14 comments I'm in. I don't get to read as much as I'd like to though, so I expect to be pretty low on the list.

Betty, the challenge starts 1 Feb so only books that you read on or after 1 Feb will count towards the challenge.

No problem! If I make any mistakes I'm sure I'll hear ;-) I've been looking over the READ list, I probably should have picked a smaller list to start with!

Melissa (melitious) I'm going to give this a shot.

Just keep track by yourself then every 5 days, I'll start a discussion thread for everybody to report where they're up to :)
