September was a rather hectic month for me, hence the reason that I'm just now getting to my monthly recap. Frankly, I'm surprised I read as much as I did, what with the Baltimore Book Festival and all (click here for a summary of all my posts from the festival).
And now the monthly summary ...
I really think that 7 is about my limit for books each month. I know some people read more (and some read less) but I just can't seem to fit in any more.
Books – 7 (2,297 pages)
- Life Is So Good (272 pages)
- Midnight's Children (560 pages)
- The Pages In Between (288 pages)
- House and Home (272 pages)
- A Full House - But Empty (268 pages)
- Some Experiences of an Irish R.M. (I've been working on this one for a while.) (309 pages)
- One Special Summer (72 pages)
- 12,000 Miles in the Nick of Time (256 pages)
And my TBR list gained 32 new titles this month.
Audio Books - 0 (other than my Wheel of Time standard, explained in my left side bar)
Mom & Son Book Club - none, but we have been reading several Eric Carle booksChallenges – 1 over, 2 in progress
- The Summer Reading Thing ended and I'm not sure if I can say I completed it or not.
- I'm still working on the "Lost" Books Challenge (ending in Jan.) and the 1% Well Read Challenge (ending in Feb.) ... I'm hopeful about those! [My list of books for each is in my left side bar.]
So ... what was YOUR September like?
You sound like me - the books are coming in faster than I can read them.
ReplyDeleteListening to the Wheel of Time books is a brilliant idea. I only ever made it up to about book 4, but I know I'd be wanting to reread them before the last one if I was you.
ReplyDeleteI don't work, which means no commute, so I can only listen to audiobooks at night and I tend to fall asleep, so listening to a book is a slow process for me, but I love to have one on the go. Right now it's The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper.
You read more books than I did in September...I'm so behind on reading this year...have read less than 40 books...trying to read at least 100 books for this year so I will be reading, reading, reading...every chance I get.
ReplyDeleteWhat do you mean, "what was your September like?" We've still got at least a few more days left in Sep...(references calendar) aw, man! When did October get here???
