Why MYSTERIES? Because that is the genre I read. Why PARADISE? Because that is where I live.
Among other things, this blog, the result of a 2008 New Year's resolution, will act as a record of books that I've read, and random thoughts.

the 100 milestone
With yesterday's completed review, I reached 100 books for the year. A bit less than last year but my excuse is that I've read some chunksters! So I'll probably get to 103 or 104. My list of books is on Smik's Reviews.
Only 64 books so far this year, but then I have spent a lot of time this summer watching the Ashes series on TV. ;o) And blogging, and the allotment............
I don´t know exactly how many crime novels I have read. I have reviewed 114, but a few of these are rereads from November where I cheated by not always reading the ending. On the other hand I read fourteen Inspector Wexford novels in the spring which do not count among the review books. So nearly 120 that I have read.

Congratulations Kerrie. I'm up to 124 at the moment - thanks to my increased consumption of audio books this year
ReplyDeleteThat's very well done Bernadette. I'm not sure why I seem to have slowed down a bit! Spending too much time blogging??

ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny how a number becomes a goal? There is something attractive about a century - must be the 00s
