I have gotten much farther than I expected this month, finishing 12 books and 3,584 pages. Four of those "books" were less than 25 pages, but my average page count is still around 300 pages, so I am not worried about counting short stories as books. It's a nice feeling to have a good head start on my goal this early in the year.
My highlights this month were Earth Abides by George R. Stewart and Microcosmic God by Theodore Sturgeon, both published in the 1940's.
I have purchased 6 books so far this year which is WAY more than I normally buy, I average 10-11/year. Hopefully I will read them all at some point this year, I am working on the second one now. I really need to leave Amazon gift cards in card form rather than applying them to my account when I get them, that tends to stop me from purchasing things on a whim.
