This year is now 2/3 completed so time for my update.
My goal is 24,000 pages for the year and I have completed almost 20,000 so far. That should put me at about 30,000 by the end of the year which will essentially tie my record.
For unusual stats this time around I looked at publication dates. In an average year I read books that were published in 33 different years. This year I have already read that many, hopefully that means I am reading a more diverse set of books. Lost Horizons (1933), West with the Night (1942), and The Quiller Memorandum (1965) all stand out as excellent books from years I haven't read before (and 2 of those I found because of the book club). Normally I tend to read more books from one specific year than any other years, the worst case for me was 2012 when I read 23 books from 2011 and the second place year only had 9. This year the most I have read is 4 books from 2005, 2012, and 2015.
