I love the Nathan Fillon pic Alansplace!!

As for the challenge, I love the idea of it but have learned that I can not push myself or else I'll just stop all together. So, I try not to concentrate on speed too much. I have, however, always felt that I read too slowly/lazily and I am using the challenge as a way to encourage myself to keep reading. I knew when I started this year that I would not make 100, because even though I can read two books a week (if I avg. 100 pgs a day), I rearly do so anymore. I did want to make it to at least 50 (avg 1 book a week), though. It doesn't look like I'll even make that goal this year, unless I "cheat" and stick to short stories.

So my goal next year will still say 100, but I will be happy if I read 50; 1 book a week is not too much for me to ask of myself.
