You Read How Many Books? Reading Challenge 2014
Rummanah Aasi


202/250 books



 
 
While I didn't reach my goal of 270 books in 2013, I did make it up to 84% which is still pretty good. This year I'm going to make my goal a bit more realistic and manageable to 250 books. Many thanks to this year's host, Gina @ Book Dragon's Lair, for hosting this challenge.

Details/Rules:
  1. Read, read, read!
  2. There are several levels to choose from
    Level 1: 100 minimum
    Level 2: 150 at least
    Level 3: 200 or more
  3. You may move up a level but not down
  4. You don't need a blog to participate. As long as wherever you link to is public so we can check out your books read.
  5. Reviews are not necessary (but there will be a post so you can link up) but a list of books read is. 
  6. No need to list your books in advance. You may select books as you go. Even if you list them now, you can change the list if needed.
  7. Books allowed: Audio, Re-reads, eBooks, YA, Manga, Graphic Novels, Library books, Novellas, Young Reader, Nonfiction – as long as the book has an ISBN or equivalent or can be purchased as such, the book counts. 
  8. Individual short stories in a collection or individual books in the Bible do not count
  9. Crossovers from other reading challenges count.
  10. Challenge begins January 1st, 2014 thru December 31, 2014. Books started before the 1st do not count. You can join at anytime.

    Congrats on choosing level 3! I challenged myself to read 250 books on GoodReads. I did the same last year and I managed (but only just). Hopefully I'll have as much time this year.
    Good luck and happy reading!

    I didn't get anywhere near 200 books this year. I'd like to in 2014.
    How was your Xmas break, btw? Nice to have time off work?
