Does anyone else here try to read 50 books a year?This is my second year trying for 50(didn't quite make it last year-only got 49). So far I'm on book #5.

god i wish I had the time to read 50 books

I read an online article on how to increase your intelligence which suggested watching less tv and reading lots of demanding books. I still watch too much tv and reach for the undemanding books.

So far the books I've been reading have been non-fiction books-and very interesting ones at that!

Reading books are really annoying for me, because it takes time to finish. But I would like to read small articles.

Welcome CeasAbbie.

Have you considered audiobooks as an option? You can listen to them while you're doing other things. For example, my wife is American, and I lived over there for 6 years. We would drive up from South Carolina to West Virginia (a 10-hour drive) every Thanksgiving to visit her mother, and we listened to the entire Harry Potter series on those long drives.

I'm up to 14 out of 50 this year(IObviously 50 books is going to be a breeze for me.)

My favourite book is Lord of the Rings by J R R Tolkein The films were great but the books are better

My goal for this year was to read 75 books..I'm now on book #78 and I have 'till the end of the year which is still a ways off.
