One Million Pages Per Lifetime discussion

It is a tad early (just a few days in the 2011).

However, we can start off the new year with a currently reading BANG! and I'm looking forward to see what you are reading.

I'm sure we will be posting crazy fools. Especially, those of us that are entered in challenges. Check out our year 12x12 in 2012 challenge!

Excitement for this challenge has me ready to slaughter my reading numbers for this year!!!

I love Gail and her world!! Scott Westerfeld is on my Steampunk list for 2012. I loved Uglies so I'm excited for this series!

i love gail too...I just finished up book 2 the other day in audio and had to buy book 3 because of the ending...you might like those in audiobook...emily grey is the narrator and she is a hoot

I grabbed Soulless in the 3 for 2 credit sale. I almost started it this morning but I decided to go for something I have not read.

Incarnate is what I would start with. That cover is absolutely gorgeous.

Along with my fellow 12x12 challenge buddies, I'm super excited to "slaughter" (stealing your word, MS!) my reading pile this upcoming year.

December is fading into the dusk with , and hopefully .

January will be greeted with me reading: .

That's what I was thinking of doing. Plus, I've heard this book is a little more action-packed, which is something I definitely need right now! I've heard Everneath and Under the Never Sky are a little bit slower.

Here's what I have lined up for January so far:
... and whatever else I decide to pick up at the library!

You're definitely going to have a good start to the year with all those books :D. I can just tell!

I think I'll refrain from posting everything I want to read in January. Too tiresome. LOL!

4 more books and you will make your 12 TBR book list for Jan. Yup, on a roll indeed!

4 more isn't a problem at all for me, lol. Let's just hope I can get them all read!

Thank you! I'm getting really pumped up for 2012. =) Especially with the 12X12 challenge! It's getting me excited!

IKR!? I think uit's doing that for all of us! :DD

I'm pumped! Ready to read and getting a January List ready as well!

Yeah. Since I've planned out my reading lists for the next 3 months, I just want to focus on actually getting them read.

Zakiya wrote: "Yeah. Since I've planned out my reading lists for the next 3 months, I just want to focus on actually getting them read."

Does planning out your books work for you? And how many books do you have lined up per month? [Sorry, I'm just a little curious. =)]

I like to have an idea of what I want to read but I'm very much a mood selector. Sometimes I can't stand another YA, or need a bloody historical, or I crave something light & fluffy.

However, I want the next few months to be planned so I have all my TBR books on my kindle/Nook. I switch up my ereaders while they charge. I'll wiggle between the months I'm sure but I will not have an option to run to the store for a book. Unless I learn to read more Chinese characters.

No problem! I don't mind answering questions:). I've got 12 lined up for each month, but I need 2 more for March. Usually, planning my books helps me out a lot; it might not be those exact books that get read, but it helps to keep me on the right track when it comes to finishing challenges.

MS- I used to be a mood selector, too. Then I met Goodreads and became a challenge addict :).

I'm going to try the challenge addict method this year ;) since u twisted my arm and all!

LOL! How so, dear Mad?

By planning all my months! LoL! At least until July to start. Then when I come back to the US I can gather 2012 books I wouldn't have access to. And work those into te rest of the year.

LOL! I'm sorry I twisted your poor arm! But I think planning will help you while you're over there :). I would've planned my books until June, but I don't have enough in all of my categories yet.

I'll plan sometime today and have u look it over.

Bloody revolution is pretty darn good. Men are kissing lips of the female heads on the poles now. Drunk lads. So far the royals are not beheaded yet... I'm waiting. *evil grin*

I think I'm going to plan out my books as well. I used to be a mood reader too, and I impulsively checked out books at the library. I think now, with all these challenges I'm joining, I'm going to plan it out, so I can get all my books in one trip to the bookstore or library.

Yeah, I wish I could read the books I get from the library more often, and not just let them sit around in my room until after they're due. It would help SO much with challenges.

A plan. Got to have a plan. Ok. I'm on this! In a little while. Ah, tonight. Maybe tomorrow. This year for sure. LOL!

LOL! You sound like me now! :DD

I am currently reading...

Starting the new year off right with...

I hope u like revolution! I'm about 65% done! More in depth history after 100 pages. Love how music ins integrated as well! I wish I picked up this book earlier!

Although, I think I may set it aside and see if I can get a Xmas book read for this holiday.

I'm really hoping to read most of the books i own this year (i got three book selves of to-read books :P)

Heather I loved The Other Boleyn Girl! If I find it I'll reread it with you. LOL!

I squeezed in during my vacation time! That should be my last book of 2011, unless I get home early from vacation. I loved this book, you guys should give it a shot!

What did you think overall of Revolution? Did you like it?

Loved it! It was such a mesh of modern and historical. Music and blood. Family and friendship. LOVED IT! I think I will take it to China in the fall to reread before the year is out.

I didn't like it that much, for some reason. I really don't know why, I just think it wasn't the book for me!

I liked it not loved it. I was put off by the bad nature of the girl in the beginning. but the more I thought about it... that is how I was and how true to a certain young girl nature that many books have not even attempted to show.

I did not continue with the series... I was thinking this year I should see what happens beyond the first book.

It was kind of one of my resolutions to get to this series, and the Vampire Academy series too. They've both been on my TBR too long! I've heard the Wicked Lovely series gets better though, so we'll see...

I finished and today! I'm kicking off the new year well! :D

Up next for me is probably going to be . I've been reading lots of paranormal lately, so I need some contemporary.

first book finished in 2012 is . now im reading and listening to .
