For January I have 4 novels that I must finish. <br /><br />"American Gods" [because I already started it]<br /><br />three titles that I will read for book tours and a guest review. The rest will be read as comics. :) I will sure try to hit 72 novels and I also have some short novels, so I will manage to diversify and make the challenge a bit more manageable.Harry Markovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09140305922494369576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878336841714905515.post-73641715033093393282010-01-01T02:24:27.270-08:002010-01-01T02:24:27.270-08:00Harry,
first of all HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I especially...Harry,<br /><br />first of all HAPPY NEW YEAR!<br /><br />I especially like goal six. To read six books per month is a worth goal. I tried this last year.Sometimes I failed sometimes I reached the goal. It always depends on the choice of books. <br />Example:<br />This month I want to read the following books:<br />- Drood by Dan Simmons, paperback 816 pages<br />- Gardens of the Moon by Steven Erikson, hardcover 526 pages<br />- The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams,paperback 912 pages<br />-A Shadow in Summer by Daniel Abraham, paperback 384 pages<br />- The Belly and the Bow by K. J. Parker, paperback 521 pages<br />-The Bookman by Lavie Tidhar, paperback 416 pages<br />Six books with in sum 3565 pages.<br />January = 31 days<br />That means 115 pages per day.<br />My reading speed = 35 pages per hour.<br />That means 3 and 1/2 hours per day.<br /><br />One day = 24 hours<br />Sleep = 6 hours<br />Work = 10 hours<br />Read = 3,5 hours<br />that means 4,5 hours left for all not mentioned here (e.g. family,reviews, blog)!!<br /><br />I think the only possibility I have is to increase my reading speed.<br /><br />I'm curious whether you, Gavin and I will hit the goal: 72 books in 2010!!<br />GOOD LUCK and fingers crossed.ediFanoBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11129248787624088717noreply@blogger.com
