Okay so I finished my third book for the month so far. And since I didn't start keeping count till March but did know how many I read for Feb. and taking an average of how many I read a month I'm going to say six for the month of Jan. so with the three this month so far I'm figuring I've read 45 so far for the year.

Just finished my fourth book for the month so I'm at 46. Wasn't able to read as much as I would have liked because I've been suffering from Migraines for the last week and it is kind of hard to look at words when your head hurts so bad. I did start another book this morning but I don't know if I will finish before the end of the month. We'll see...

Checking back in to see what people had to say.  I just finished "The Nightingale" by Kristin Hannah.  It is about two sisters and is set in France at the beginning of WWII.  Like most of her books, it is bittersweet, but was a very enjoyable read if you like historical fiction.  I never have been much of a non fiction reader.  Usually I do historical fiction and it will peak my interest in a subject or person and then I go online to read more about it.

I read whenever I have the time, and try to read a couple or more books a month.

Well didn't finish five for the month. Actually I didn't even read the book I had started. I got 26 pages in and the library called saying that the third book of one of the series I'm reading was in so I put the other book down and started reading it instead. So the total for August is four and a half books cause by the end of the 31st I was on at least 170 of 360 and I just finished it a couple hours ago so half a book for September.

I read about just 2 books a week few chapters each day and end up finishing it within 1-2 weeks of reading depending on how hooked I am.

I love to read...wish I had time to read a lot more than I do.  I have a habit of picking up a book and going start to finish if I'm not careful lol.

I am an avid reader, so I read about 3 books a week.  I love reading and can never go to bed without reading-it relaxes me.

Well I finished the book I had started and put down last night. So one and a half for the month so far. Picked up another book from the rack at the library while I wait for them to get the fourth book of the series I am trying to read in. we'll see how far I get in this before they do. If I am more then half done when the fourth book comes back then I will continue with this one till I finish.

Okay so I finished another book last night and started the fourth book of the series I'm reading. And actually it is two books that I have finished since I was last on. Just haven't been near a computer lately.

Okay so I finished book five of my series last night and that makes it five books for the month so far. I started book six of the series this morning. May get half way done before the month is done.

Ok so if my count is correct so far I have read 51 books so far for the year. But that just seems off to me. Anyway I have one book complete for October so far.
