You’re doing well on you 100 book challenge. I’ve got a 100 book challenge that involves a (more or less) fixed list of books. I’m at 52 now (but read a lot that’s not on the list, too). For July 1st, that’s just about on schedule!
thanks lee ,yes going well want have time to read 2666 at the end of the year ,all the best stu
Looking forward to Don Quixote! Do we have a schedule? (Sorry if I missed it..)

You’ve been reading a lot of great translated works Stu, been adding loads to my wish list, that is for sure! I hope you get to more of your 52 book challenge in the coming months. Isn’t it hard to read the books you know you are supposed to?!
me too amy am reading books from different countries ,am going to have to try and get to them ,all the best stu
!0 books makes a great month I think. And as always you read such an interesting mix of books. I wish I could be more like you in the things I pick up to read.
And like Amy said, good luck on the 52 books. I have a hard time sticking to any list I make..
Oops, that was meant to say 10 books.
Thanks Iris I like to try and mix them up a lot every month ,all the best stu
Looks like you´re doing great on your goals! 🙂 Ande you read a Biyi Bandele book this month as well (I read The Man Who Came in From the Back of beyond), how´d you like it?
