Just 26 published ones. I participate on a critique web site and read lots of unpublished stories and book chapters (as well as work on my current novel WIP).

I am so far behind this year, it's depressing. I was just complaining to my wife that I'm down to about a book a month. Deplorable. <sadface>

108 (!) in Goodreads.
I had no idea I had read that many. Since I had the kids in the last 4 years, I've been down to about 60 per year, so this was a huge surprise that I'm back to pre-kid levels. Apparently the problem wasn't reading time, but selection time. It's all thanks to the Agency 5 - Thanks to their stupidity in April, I started borrowing from the library again, only now I get to do it from the comfort of my home at midnight. My book buying money has gone to E-Ink devices and accessories. |

I am currently reading my 71st. I might even start the 72nd later if I get off the computer and finish the 71st!

About 40 since the first of the year (I've only been actively noting finish dates since June). And that include cookbooks (and yes I read cookbooks).

I had to go check my goodreads account. I have read 101 books so far this year and have a couple more on the go right now. I am trying to read 144 for the year, so it will be close.
