Here's mine www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/1045323I'm trying for 60 this year, worked my way up from 40, then 50, in previous years. I'm currently about 3 books behind. I've actually read a lot more adult this year than I thought! |

My challenge is 40 books ( www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/1070880) and I'm one book ahead of schedule (Although I'm sure I'll fall behind soon!) I was aiming for 50 last year and only read 44 because I had so much homework  |

Here's mine www.goodreads.com/user_challenges/1355985This is my first year of doing it and I put my challenge at 50, I'm 1 book ahead of schedule, although I do think it's because the book I'm currently reading (nearly finished) is 3 books in one so its classed as one book. Do people mind if I add them on goodreads Xx |

You've read some awesome books this year  I've owned the Book Thief for several years now but I haven't got round to reading it and I keep on buying new books! Did you enjoy it? I'm planning to read as many books I own as I can after my end of year exams because I'm really behind ✨ |

I set myself a goal of 52. I thought one a week. I even set out in January to start a book journal. I think I only got the first 2 books and then I gave up. Here's my Goodreads...
www.goodreads.com/user/show/13743581-lauraFor some reason my challenge doesn't seam to be updating. I'm not sure how many books I've read this year but I know I'm well behind. I work nights so on those days I sometimes don't read at all. I always carry a book with me though. I've actually got two books in my bag that I take in my bag everywhere at the moment! Feel free to add Kim!  |

I loved the Book Thief I found It a bit slow to begin with but then all of a sudden I really got into it and couldn't put it down I keep buying books and end up reading my newer ones compared to my other ones, I have a list of books I own that I need to read, I don't have a certain order I just see what tickles my fancy at the time I've now read 20 books this year (its kind of 22 but 'his dark materials' which I have just finished is classed on one book as its 3 in one but you know what i mean )I have added you Laura |

I used my first free download on Audible to get the book thief. I tried out several and I liked the narrator best for that. I haven't listened to it yet though. I heard it was quite an intense book to read?
Thanks Kim, it occurred to me I might as well send the request. Good to see lots of Harlan. Not only does my challenge not update the books I've read don't show up in order. I'm obviously doing something wrong! :/

Hi Laura, if you go on to the books that don't show, click 'write a review' then make sure the date is set to some time this year and it should add them to your challenge x
