wow. I've just checked out challenges out there. 100+ books in a year, 52 books in 12 mths. no way i can achieve that. I've just saw one- 20 in 2009, well at least that's attainable for me. I see a lot of tbr challenges- from the stack, rescue challenge, ban from spending. those are what i need to join in. I buy too much books, but too little time to read! I have no idea how one gets time to read in their busy lives?? clueless. but still those challenges i'm afraid i cant do. so i'm starting afresh, starting from scratch, taking the first step or however you might term it and aim to read one book. yes, only one book at a time. inspired by amy's read one book challenge. no time limits, or maybe in 6 mths, i have to finish at least a book. yes. and that lucky book will be: The Lake of Dead Languages by Carol Goodman which i got leisurely from my public library, yesterday. great. i've written it down and i'm acting it out, hopefully. nope, surely.
