I was foolish enough to sign up for a challenge to read 100 books this year. I have no hope of getting to 100. At this stage I will call myself happy if I should reach a total of 75. I am obviously feeling optimistic as last time I updated I stated I would be happy to reach a total of 50 books!
The original post, with a full list of books read in 2009 can be seen here.
I will just mention the most recent below:
March/April
15. Hamish meets Bumpy McKenzie ~ ?
16. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland ~ Lewis Caroll
17. The Choice ~ Nicholas Sparks
18. The first Casualty ~ Ben Elton
19. Promises in Death ~ J.D.Robb
20. East of the Mountains ~ David Guterson
21.
Slowly slowly, progress is made! It is exciting to have reached 20 books as a milestone :)
Editing to add: I did try to read 'The Quest' by Wilbur Smith but I could not make headway into it at all. I was looking forward to it as I have read the whole Egyptian series but this seemed too unbelievable, even for Taita...

Oooh, my favourite quote ever is from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
ReplyDeleteAlice: Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?
The Cat: That depends a good deal on where you want to get to
Alice: I don't much care where.
The Cat: Then it doesn't much matter which way you go.
Alice: …so long as I get somewhere.
The Cat: Oh, you're sure to do that, if only you walk long enough.
I'm glad to see that your list isn't comprised of earnest books only! Lemme know if you want to borrow a Chalet Book so you can figure out what Chalet Girl and I are raving about when we're talking 'Jolly Hockey Sticks' stuff to you ; )
