That’s true… But I also think people can get enjoyment out of books and feel really good about the number of them they’ve read. I’m on book #4 this year and that’s a huge accomplishment for me. ?☺
Don’t be sad about it. It happens! I….might have read one? I don’t keep track and it’s perfectly healthy not to. You’ll be out of your slump before you know it. ?
Halfway through my 7th book.. But then I’ve realised that numbers can be misleading sometimes (and demoralising too)! So as long as everyone’s happy with what they’re reading, the number is just a number 🙂
With working career job and a Dave job and house and family and active in community. I read on lunch. Before work and before bed. Never will I trivialize how many I read. I’m not in competition with anyone. Not even myself. Happy reading. Love to see what people are reading.
I’m stuck on 13, though. It’s a good book- great plot- BUT, there are lots of characters and it jumps around a lot so it’s hard to follow. I’d put it down but I know I’d forget everything I’ve read so far and would have to start all over again ?! I’m trudging along but slooooowly.

Don’t count them. Just read and enjoy the stories. That’s all that matters.
That’s true… But I also think people can get enjoyment out of books and feel really good about the number of them they’ve read. I’m on book #4 this year and that’s a huge accomplishment for me. ?☺
I just started my 5th!!
1 sadly. The last book landed me into a reading slump
Don’t be sad about it. It happens! I….might have read one? I don’t keep track and it’s perfectly healthy not to. You’ll be out of your slump before you know it. ?

Halfway through my 7th book.. But then I’ve realised that numbers can be misleading sometimes (and demoralising too)! So as long as everyone’s happy with what they’re reading, the number is just a number 🙂

Just finished my 30th
Finished my 11th yesterday

About the same for me.
I’m stuck on 13, though. It’s a good book- great plot- BUT, there are lots of characters and it jumps around a lot so it’s hard to follow. I’d put it down but I know I’d forget everything I’ve read so far and would have to start all over again ?! I’m trudging along but slooooowly.
3rd (Redeeming Love)
Working on #13, but I’ve hit a bit of a lull.
It must be an unlucky number lol- I’m stuck there too! ?

When i start next book, it will be #6 i think
