I had forgotten to "up" my reading goal. I went to Amazon GoodReads because I realized that I hadn't updated my progress on a book that I'm reading, and saw when I got to my page that I hadn't recorded finishing a book. No...

I sat down in the chair by the patio door and read some out of each of the books that I'm working on. Later I'll need to record on Amazon GoodReads how far I've gotten in each of them. I didn't get the chance to take pictures...

This book was an e-book that I read on my computer, and the third in one of the many series I'm reading. The story in this book brought up even more questions about certain characters (like the governess who was left as a...

I was finally able to start the first book for the Amazon Good Reads challenge for 2025. I got this and another book (which I found out were the first and second of a series--yup, starting yet another series) out of a...

Finished book #14 this afternoon. Tomorrow I'll start #15. I have my stack of books on the table to read next. I'm glad that someone told me about Amazon Good Reads about four years ago. I'm reading like I used to when I was...

For the Amazon GoodReads challenge. This book was short, and from the point of view of view of the tree. It kind of ended the way I thought it would, and maybe a bit trite, but I guess I like trite. Now I'm not...

It is 9:54 by my computer clock, and I need to get to bed. Tomorrow is Saturday, and I may just use tomorrow to do projects. I can't work on the cross-stitch I'm doing in the evening because the first color I'm using is light,...

Today I did a lot of sitting and reading and wound-up finishing book #27 (for me) in the Amazon GoodReads challenge. I tried to count, and I think I'm reading five if not six different series at once. I just keep...

My goal number may go up again, as it's only June, but I'll see. The next book I'll read is the next one in this series, but I don't know when I'll be able to purchase another book. This one wasn't quite what I expected, but...

This morning, I got an email from thriftbooks.com that a couple of the ones that I'd been waiting for were available, so I got them. Turned out that one of them was free, as I had reached enough points for a free book....

...and started #15. That one good thing about not feeling well--one can lie around and read, which is what I was doing when I finished book 14 for this year. Both 14 and now 15 are books I've read already--this series ("The...

Today during the rainy dreary weather I’m reading a book by John Grisham, Theodore Boone Kid Lawyer. It gets more and more interesting. How many of you have read the book? I have a sneaking suspicion I’ve read it before. It...

I mentioned in my last post (6 of 12) that I had something else to post about. Today in the mail, I received two books that will let me--in one case continue a series and in another finish part of a series. Before I read...

I have to remember to bring a book with me when I run errands (like for when I'm waiting for or on the bus). So far I'm two books into my goal and January's not over yet. I have three of "The Cat Who.." series, I finished one,...

Was start another book. When I registered it on my Amazon Good Reads page, I upped my "want to read" goal from 32 to 33. I try to take a book with me when I go out riding the bus. It helps with my Good Reads challenge goal,...

Technically, this was book four in this series, but the third book I've read for this year's Amazon Good Reads challenge. That's one nice thing about having a television that doesn't work--one can read. Of course, I got so...

If I looked at the site correctly, they moved the three books I'm currently reading to the new challenge. I'm going to try to read 12 books this year--I read 13 last year, but I kept changing the number, so I don't recall what...

I read "Tea with the Black Dragon" for the Amazon Good Reads Challenge. I got the book out of the "Little Library" by the Health Center It was dry, rambling, (not enough dialogue for my taste) and downright boring. For...

I finished book #3 in the Goodreads reading challenge. I have two other books going right now--I read some of one of them today, and finished this one. Maybe I'll be able to read some of the other one I have left to read before...
