I've been looking at all the 100 book challenges and am overwhelmed and envious. I saw one challenge for 75 books and thought "That's a little better but I don't I can do that." Then I came across your challenge and thought "Oh, that seems a lot better" until you mentioned about 1 a week! You go Diane.

I read a page on my kindle and I finally picked up a book tonight. Oh, how I wish I were faster reader.

Okay, I'm getting back into reading on a more regularly. I need to read some shorter books (like Love Inpsired books) to get myself in line with my 2011 goal.

i have alot of the shoter book. wish i could read more! love to read, but this challenge and me wouldnt get along :{ Enjoy though

I'm getting better! LOL!

I updated my challenge to be 40 books for 2011. I lost some time this spring and summer (thanks to learning to knit) so I thought I would update my personal goal.

I did it!!!
