Sometime last year I ran across a book reading challenge in which you try to read 100 books in a year starting on your birthday.
Well, since I was in the middle of a book on my last birthday, I've decided to modify the rules of the challenge to start at the New Year. I just realized that I actually started a book a day or two after my birthday (Dec 6) so I can follow the real rules of the challenge. I really doubt I'll be able to read 100 books in a year since I tend to choose books that are somewhat long, but that's why it's a challenge, right?
Here is my list of books and I'll update it as I finish a book. The titles that are crossed out are the ones I have finished, and the title not crossed out is the book I am currently reading. I'll also include the page count and date I finished, just for fun.
