Meh. I like books, but I'm not gonna feel too guilty about not finishing 100 books in a year. It's quality, not quantity One book a week at minimum is good enough for me.

yep! I really need to update my post in the forum here though. Shelfari has me at 69 books but a couple of those were novellas so I won't count them for this challenge.

I hope to finish by the end of summer. I read much more in the summer.

I'm around where I expected to be ... about a book a week. Best of all, enjoying the reading and a rebirth of reading novels since I got the Kindle 2.

Despite a disastrous June in which I read only four books of the mindless entertainment variety, I'm still comfortably ahead.

My answer is "no".

I too am tracking on GoodReads but it does not follow the "MobileRead Challenge" rules; my ticker tracker thingy is more truthful. Nine of the 21 books shown read on Goodreads are actually short stories; so in trying to follow the spirit of the 150pg rule I have counted those 9 as 3.

Yes. I just picked the 100 book total based on what I read in the initial challenge. I have in the spirit of the challenge not been counting books under 150 pages. For me it is more about finding out how many books I typically read, something I had never really thought about.

I must say that since starting participation in the two monthly book clubs here, and two more at my local library, that I am reading a greater variety of books than normal. Authors or book types I would never have looked at before.
