  6. Congrats on reading so many books over the previous year. I managed to get in 33, which was more than double my goal. We read a few of the same ones, and I’ve taken a few titles off your list to try to get to later in the year. If you’re interested in the books I read, http://bit.ly/2iskTmm This year I’m aiming for 25 and hope to surpass it.

      1. I have been inspired by this and on my New Year’s Resolution list I have put to read at least 30 books. Not as grand as 100 but one day that will be my resolution. Thank you for your inspiration!

  11. wahooo!! This is amazing! My list comes up short in comparison but I’m shocked at our similarity in taste! I counted 10 books that we read the same… Happy reading in 2017, I hope you can keep your list growing so rapidly!

      1. Both JoJo Moyes books (me before you was one of my faves this year!) the Bridget Jones books, the Catcher on the Rye (my husband talked me into that one and I wasn’t really fond of it) Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children, the Chemist, City of Bones (I didn’t actually make it all the way through) and the lovey bones (I watched the movie first and it ruined it, but I had to read it anyway cause the movie was awesome) … looks as if its not quite ten but still quite a few in common!! 🙂 happy new year!

  20. Woah. I thought a book a month for me was ambitious. If I turn off the PlayStation I could catch up to you.

    Has reading that many books increased your reading speed?
    And,
    has reading that many books improved your writting?

    Congrats on your accomplishment.

    1. I think the more I read the quicker I get yes, especially if I read a lot in short amount of time. Yeah and writing for my blog etc has. Haha it’s always hard not getting distracted my other stuff, I’m guilty of not reading for ages because I’m too busy watching Netflix zx
