I didn't know there was such a desire for more specific reading statistics! (BTW, it would be 1500 per month, 346.15 per week, 49.31 per day, 2.05 per hour)

Does this give new meaning to reading between the lines?
Time to start a new list (LISTS... :drool: ) of books.

First book to add to that 2012 books read list (LISTS... :drool: ) is City of Bones by Cassandra Clare. I was supposed to read a steampunk genre sci-fi book for my book club, and I noticed she was on some steampunk categories. But I apparently chose a book that didn't fit the genre. And it wasn't good, either (not a reliable suspension-of-belief aspect, weak and stereotype characters, predictable plot), even for a YA novel. Oh well.

This year she has already gotten to 12, so she's well on her way.
I hit 12 last year...reading, add a few audiobooks to that, I'm around 16 total.
I wish I had more time to read books, I have a couple I bought a while back I still haven't gotten to...they are still on hold.
I ordered my first book of the year from B&N a few days ago "Generation Me". It should arrive soon. It comes highly recommended, and I'm really looking forward to it.Who is John Galt?

I have several colleagues and friends who blew MY totals away. Originally Posted by sith_killer_99

The dearth of reading time once school resumes is sad for me; I chomp down on the time in summer!
