As the half of 2012 is done I’m looking forward to the end of the year when I might have been finished my target of reading those unread books at home. Initially,if you recall,the target was of reading 21 books but looking at my reading speed I felt the need to cut it down a little and hence brought it to ’15 at least’.
Sounded better to me and I felt lighter [mentally, I so wish doing such things would also make me feel lighter physically,sigh]
So far 8 books done this year and we have 7 months to go. Not bad I say,yeah? I’m hopeful that I’m able to achieve that ’15 at least’ target if not the original one!!
Husby is playing a pivotal role in my self reading challenge and has offered that the moment I complete my challenge he’ll buy me 10 book on spot. Ain’t it a swell deal?
Since the day this deal has struck between us,my reading pleasure has increased multifolds…..so much so that I’ve already started making a list of the new books that I would be reading in the year 2013, like a little girl : )
Want to know which ones?
Awesome…I am yet to read the lord of the rings…I am looking for that in the library…hopefully should get it 🙂
I’m currently watching [as in play and pause style] the LOR series..I hope to finish it at least this week 😛
The movie is alluring…I’m sure the books are too!
I have read the lord of rings and thats about it …
well done scribby ..
well done for what B?
And I have read only 4 books this year 😦
Hope you are able to complete the challenge successfully to get your 10 books on the spot 🙂 That is so sweet of him 🙂
I really hope so LS…I’m just being plain lazy past few weeks now 😐
here is to many many many more reading Scribby.. you guys are my inspirations.
what half of 2012 is already done? here is the time flying? seriously yaar when I am still thinking about what did I do with 2011 here 2012 is already half past.. Sighh..
oh tell me about time flying and all that…my weight loss has gone for a total toss 😦
now pls don’t talk about weight loss and all..:( for the benefit of both of us..
lol yeah I guess we must shut that topic 😛
That’s a great list, Scribby 🙂 I have about 10books that I have to complete before end of June – library books. I hve no idea how I can do that – with packing and everything. And the thought of returning unread books makes me cry 😦
owww 10 books? 😦 that’s tough but the voracious reader that you are I’m sure you’ll find a way..and if just in case you aren’t able to finish them all…don’t worry smiths…you can always pick them up when from Indian Library 🙂 cheer up!
That’s a great list! 🙂
And I will be the first to borrow your collection once you’re done reading it. 😀 I know you don’t mind. 😛 Just kidding!
Good luck with the challenge dear! 🙂
of course not dear…in fact I was thinking on the same lines,to put up the books that I’m done reading and have no intention to store with me,for friends to take up…free giveaways 🙂 I’ll let you know
Lovely list! But all the books you have chosen for 2013 seem to be a bit ‘heavy’, except for Mayil. 🙂
That’s so sweet of your hubby. 😀 Take him up on his promise!
8 books so far is not bad, with Chirpy and all. I don’t know if I would be able to read that much with a kid in tow!
heavy? well you never know what all I end up buying actually 😉 this is just a cursory list so far..8 books only 😦 yeah with Chirpy it should have got difficult for me but thank god for that,she too loves her own play time and doesn’t like chipkofying all that time 😉
Guess what, I have already read 33 books my target of 50 books 😀
And that list looks interesting and go achieve the target so that hubby has to keep up his part of bargain 😉
33???? you are crazy 😛
wow!! you are quite a bookworm! all the best for the challenge 🙂
Not really re…I’ve slowed down since past 2 years 😦
