I recently found THE spreadsheet and discovered I have only read 12 off the list. Yep, only 12. How sad is that considering I read all the time? The handy dandy calculator on the spreadsheet told me I need to read 21 books a year from the list to complete it so that is my 'big' goal for this year. I'll start with 10 though and we'll go from there. Oh I sooo had to join this challenge! I recently found THE spreadsheet and discovered I have only read 12 off the list. Yep, only 12.

I'm at 11% -- and the book I'm finishing today (The Remains of the Day) and the book I'm starting today (The Secret History) are both on the list! What really tempts me are all of the contemporary choices I've never heard of... Once I get my list together, I'll let you know!

I also feel almost the same about Possession. I hope they strike you the same way when you get to them. The Secret History is one of my top favorite books of all time; I’ve read it about five times.

I've read 68, including books from so long ago that I don't really remember them, and a couple that were DNF. I'll be in, but it'll be a while until I make a list. Any from now will count though. Great idea Michelle. I often use this as a general list of books I’d like to read when I’m picking books for challenges.

I choose most of my books because they were cross-overs, I'm not sure if I could complete the challenge on time if I didn't. But then the one book that wasn't a cross-over (because no other books are on the list), well, that was a hard choice. There are so many great books on the list that I want to read... But, I choose, and this is final. Looking forward to starting the challenge! In that case, this is my final booklist for the challenge.
