I know I'm a little late in posting this, but since I didn't expect to win anything, its okay. Here is what I accomplished:
- 16 hours of reading time
- $26 given to charity
- The following books completed: The Manatee Scientists, Words in the Dust, Jacob Wonderbar and the Cosmic Space Kapow, Penderwicks on Gardam Street (I know this one wasn't on my list, but I really wanted to finish it)
- 1/2 hour of blogging/social networking etc.
I was surprised that I didn't get more books read considering the number of books I used to fly through when I was younger. I think there are a couple of reasons for this. First, I read more thought-provoking books now than when I was younger, and second, I think and question more as a I read than I did as a child. Anyway, now I have a starting point for next year. It has been fun to get some books read over the weekend, I d did finish an additional book after my time expired, so I finished 5 books over the weekend which is kind of neat since I have so many books I want to read. I will be reviewing the books that I read over the coming week. I do want to thank all those who stopped by my blog during the Challenge, I sure appreciate it.
My reading has slowed down a bit in the last few years as I realized that I wanted to get more out of the books. I didn't worry about how many books, but just spending the time reading and enjoying it. Thanks for playing along too!
