If you read a book you’ve already read do you count it in your Goodreads goal??
Yes
If I read it this year, yes
Yes
No ? I’m pretty strict about my reading goal though. And it has caused me to be in panic mode at the end of the year thinking I won’t make the goal and then my bf yelling “yes you have! Just count (insert series here)!”
For me, it’s about reading NEW books not just books in general. But I am weird and I accept this.
Yea
You can. You read the book. It depends on your personal goals. I sometimes count children’s books over 100 pages, because I often read short chapter books to my kids. I read it, it counts. But others only count adult books. Neither is wrong, it’s all about what YOU want it to be.
On a basic level, you read it so it counts if you want it too.
I fully agree. If you read the book regardless of length, genre, children’s, YA, adult, or rereading a book you read it so you should count it. However they are personal challenges so To Each Their Own. Just have fun and enjoy your reading time ?
I read Judy Moody Not Bummer Summer to the kids in summer school. Heck yes it is part of my 2018 reading list lol

No
Yes but I rarely reread a book
Yes! I reread books all the time! But I’m also a bit OCD. I want to be able to see how many times I have read a book.
No
Yes
I do…I read it lol
Yes
No
Yes. It’s pages you’ve read.
Yes. You’re still reading a book!
Yes
Only if I read it all the way through. Every so often, I’ll reread certain parts and passages of favorites but don’t count those.
Goodreads added a reread option a year or so ago which adds to your challenge if you’re participating in that.
No I don’t. I keep only new reads as part of my challenges
You can. But personally I only count new books I read
Yup, I do. reading is reading and itll still take my breath away.

Someone once told me : reading a book is making a new friend, rereading a book is meeting an old friend
No
Yes, I count it as a book read in 2018. I don’t have a goal this year.
Yes, but I notate it somehow that it was my 2nd, 3rd etc. reading.

They even have a box to click as a reread and you enter your new start finish dates. My memory is so bad I did do a reread once and didn’t know until the.end when I went to enter it in. Some I intentionally reread because I know I missed key points the first time around
Yes

I accidentally just did this not realizing that I’ve already read it! I’m curious to see if goodreads accepts it or not lol. (Down to 30 pages left)
It adds it anyway, and marks it a as read a second or third or however many times you’ve read it. Doesn’t it??
No
Yes
No

Yes. I read all the words, marked it as currently reading and then finished.
Yes, it is still a book you took the time to read this year.
