Doing great!--I see you just ahead of me on the trail. :-)


C.  (Comment, never msg). (riedel) I really gotta start reading during the day. I don't know how the rest of y'all do it during garden and wild fruit season. hahahahaha

C.  (Comment, never msg). (riedel) What I mean is, how people have time! A book for line-ups, awesome. But there are people who HAVE to be reading a good part of the day. Off work? A job where they're allowed to read?

I read on my lunch hours at work and every minute possible when I'm not working. Sometimes that's less minutes then I'd like....But give me a choice of just about anything and reading and I'll generally pick reading if I can.

C.  (Comment, never msg). (riedel) I'd rather be reading too. But talking about the people already at 100 in July.... Housework? Chores? Really have to wonder!

:-) Yep....unfortunately (for this challenge) not all of mine were mine....darn library books keep distracting me.

Oh I loved Fifth Business and the rest of the trilogy, especially 5th Business and the Manticore. Did you like it enough to read more?

Bev and I are both over 100 books so far for the year."


One thing I've learned from Goodreads is how different folks reading amounts are. One of the things that attracted me to MT TBR was the flexibility to choose a goal that fit my habits ;). My hat is off to the long distance climbers!

Robertson Davies is a favorite author of mine."


It's been a long time since I read these (back when they first came out, I believe)--I wasn't doing reviews then, but I do have them marked down as definite favorites. May have to do a reread....

C.  (Comment, never msg). (riedel) Someone else is exploring her highness, Agatha! :) It's wonderful to show stars with lists. A great gauge about what we love, like less, and indicates what we have in common. :)


C.  (Comment, never msg). (riedel) I have located all but 5 of her used books. I have read 3. The next will wait because there's a colour in it and it'll suit the coming reading challenge themes. Q;-)=
