Fans of Amish Fiction discussion

I'm going to give 50 a try again this year. I know that I read more than 50 last year, but I may have to get a second part-time job, so may not have as much reading time this year.

i have been trying to read this book A plain and Fancy Christmas for 3 weeks half way done With life, holiday and so tired not getting at it and finding it hard to get into but that could b just me.

I'm up to seven and I see that I'm keeping up with some of the big readers!

I've got a good number of galleys to read, where to start?

I am with you Barbara! So I decided to read my NetGalley books in the order in which they are (going to be) published. Do the earlier ones, first. And if I have any published the same day I just eeny meenie miny mo it!

I like your idea... here goes!

I had to create a chart today to keep track of it all! Craziness!

Only 2 more to go!!

One down -- one to go!!

I may have to start a chart and keep track of what I read, too. I keep buying books that sound interesting, bringing them home to realize that I've already read them! And I don't always remember which authors I really like, and which authors to avoid... which is frustrating. There is one popular Amish fiction writer that really annoys me, because she just doesn't know how to write dialog.
