Wow! Finishing the Bingo card really makes a difference.

Looks like we've had a couple more full BINGO cards. You guys are tearing it up this year! Maybe we should change this group name to "Book Maniacs!" ..."
So, of course I finally finish my Bingo and I notice you updated the Leaderboard a couple hours ago. 🤣 It took me me so long to finally read the western(not my favourite genre by a long shot!). I think I had the rest done for at least 3 or 4 months.

Thanks. I am reading more than ever but most of my books don't fit any categories that I have left. Trying to read books that have been sitting in my "read and then donate" boxes for years!

Thank you! Thank you. I'd like to thank my best friend, Rhonda for introducing me to this awesome group. And thank you to Connie and Stephanie for moderating. Thanks to Stephanie for working so hard to keep track of the scoring. I know we don't always make it easy for you when we switch a book from one category to another. And thanks to Wanda whose mammoth monthly totals kept me scouring my shelves for another appropriate read.
I really love our small reading group. I enjoy seeing what everyone is reading and the many genres represented.
I love the yearly challenges and wait on tenterhooks every month to see what the monthly challenges will be. The monthly challenges help me pick my next books as I always seem undecided on which of my TBR I want to pick next.
My daughter, Emily has inspired me to try to complete the Great American Reads list within the next two years, so I think I'll probably slow down my shorter reads to get through some of the books on this list in 2021.
I'm also hoping that one day soon, we can all be spending less time at home and more time with others and traveling. (Although, I know most of us travel with a book or three.)

I am looking closely at the Great American Read list as well. A lot of my favourite titles are on there!
Congratulations Linda! And thank you for spurring me on. According to Goodreads I read over 88,00 pages in 2020. I have no plans to try to top that. I keep saying I need a new hobby but I do love to read.

That's amazing, Wanda! My other hobbies tend to be things I can do while listening to audiobooks, so even though I have them, I still don't have any that are truly separate from reading. :)
My other hobbies tend to be things I can do while listening to audiobooks,...i.e. laundry and cleaning the kitchen ;)
My kitchen is never cleaner then when I'm in a good audio book.
Enjoy your 2020 reading, Bookworms!
