Horror Aficionados discussion

I had a request from longtime member, Alondra, to open up this thread for 2020.
This is a spot to track your reading for the year. It's a great way to not only see all the books you've read during the year, but it's also a easier way to track your ratings of each book, as well as Audios, novellas, etc.. Reserve your spot below, and edit your posts as the year goes on.
You can use the book covers or you can just type each title in. You can add your ratings or not, as you see fit!

HA hopes you have a great year of reading in 2020!

I'm claiming my spot for 2020. Goal is: 120 books!

WOW!

That's amazing, Alan! WOW.

I honestly didn't try to read so many, but I did read a bunch of Kindle singles, Goosebumps, graphic novels and Star Wars books - many of which I sped-read because they're so mediocre - so I ended up crushing my total from last year. I have little doubt that personal record will stand. At least until next year. :D

That's still amazing, though!

Forgot to update this list previously, so just did that now (see message 20). Although I only record 27 books read (I don't list a couple of e-magazines that could be listed as ebooks here), 2020 was the year that I read the most number of books by page count (9,179 pages in total according to Goodreads). Not sure I'll be able to beat that record again, but who knows?
