I'm not sure why centuries are such milestones but we celebrate them in sport, in age, in exams and more.
With over three months to go, it looks like I stand a good chance of reaching about 140 books by the end of December,
I find it fascinating to consider what the 100 books are composed of.
I keep track of these stats through my Reading Challenges Update page.
Some of the stats of course overlap from category to category.
8 Agatha Christie titles
20 e-books
31 titles by Australian authors, 15 of them by female authors
20 titles for the 2013 Global Reading Challenge
39 books by British authors
50 books by new-to-me authors
11 titles by American authors
7 historical crime fiction
6 for the Nordic challenge
6 for the Vintage Mystery Reading Challenge - but most if not all these are Christie's
9 books by Canadian Writers
9 are translated
7 that I have classified as not crime fiction
So, if I had to write a profile:
This reader loves crime fiction and shows a predilection for British and Australian authors.
One in every five books is read on her Kindle,
and one in every two books is by a new author.
She also enjoys crime fiction titles in translation from around the world.

Well done you, Kerrie! That's most impressive, and you've got some interesting overall profile information.
Congratulations! A milestone!
I don't know how you do it, but it's awesome.
