25 books (out of the challenged 120) read - 6 books / 5% ahead of schedule. That's a good thing as my current book, Red Mars, is probably going to take a week if not more to get through.
That does include three individually bought and read short stories, but page-wise, as usual, things even out - I'm at ~8500 pages, i.e. 340 pages per book on average.
I'm also on track on all reading-related sub-challenges, and managed to be good for the second half of February also as regards buying new books - unless there are super-good Amazon deals today, I'll end the month at eight e-books bought for myself, which brings the total of the year to 18 (my challenge being "no more than 120 e-books bought this year").
In other words... so far, so good!
