I agree, what a lovely avatar!
Bombus, you are doing great, 37, wow!
I also got back to reading a book I put on hold (Howard Zinn's history of the American people).

I think I'm at 27, so quite a bit behind XD GoodReads is telling me I need to do 1.5 books per week to make it on time.

Wow, that's crazy! But I am holding my thumbs that you will make it :)
I think my aim was 15 books, I am at 13 now. So easy peasy lemon squeezy.

I think my original goal this year was 10 or so. Then I was getting a decent amount of reading done, and I think I upped it to 18.

Wow, isn't that great!
So much better than aiming too high and ending up being far from that.

Like me X'D
I think I could make it if I include some shorter books, and maybe some comics. Unfortunately my list at the moment is full of things like Dostoyevsky XD

happy birthday Sanssouci!!! 
I'm still really behind, only 3 finished reads and one of them was not even a complete book but what's released of a comic so far. that's 13% of the challenge in 67% of the year. maybe I should focus on comics to catch up, I wanted to use a trial month of comixology, but it feels sad to give up on my highly detailed reading plans.

I decided to stop getting books from the library for a while because I have too many books that I haven't read, and I want to focus on them. But then I ended up buying a few books from the library and winning a goodreads giveaway!
