200 Books in 2009!

I am THRILLED that I have just completed my 200th book of this year!  I won’t be reading much in July because of Oxford, but completing 200 books in less than 5 months means I might actually get to 400 books this year – that just seems crazy!

My 200th book:

You know those little book blog awards they pass around? Well, I think someone needs to create a flash one, that is a super-human/hero woman who can read at the speed of light! :) You are amazing and inspiring. I've tried to figure out how you do it actually. Still can't quite figure out how to read in my sleep, but I'll keep trying! (Just kidding...I think you're amazing!) Congratulations!

It doesn't seem crazy, it IS crazy! Haha!

More seriously, congratulations! :) I don't know how you achieved that; even in french (my first language), I'm not sure I can read that fast! Maybe I don't manage my time correctly; too much blogging, not enough reading :P

Yay Swapna! You are awe-inspiring. =)

I loved Guernsey, I hope you did too. I can't wait for your review, although I suspect it will be a long time in coming. ;)

How awesome is this. 200 books? wow...I can only dream. I'll be more than happy if I manage to read 100 books this year. That would be something.

All the best with your goal, if anyone can do it, you can.

Way to go. Someone needs to call the Guinness Book of World Records because 200 is amazing but if you hit 400 this year that would be mind boggling!

Congrats on 200 books! I'm excited to already be over 50 books at this point. I hope you enjoyed Guernsey. I loved it!

WOW you are my hero. I am doing well if I read 10 in a year, maybe 20. 200 is Awesome. are you going to list the 200 books you read?

Anna said...

Wow! You totally rock. And since I'm late in commenting on this one, you've probably read another 100 already. ;)
