    What month was your best reading month?  July, with 5 books

    What month was your worst reading month?  I had a bunch of 1 book months: January, May and August.  I think it's because they were all months when I was reading things that were really long.

    Any additional comments, questions or concerns?  A lot of what I read were audiobooks, but I still take the page counts from GR and count them.  I read a lot of 900-1000+ page books this year, and the majority of my books were in the 400-500 page range.

    How many books did you read in 2013? 41 books-  reading book 42 right now, but I'm only 50% finished with it. My goal for the year was 40.  I'm really pleased that I met it and even went beyond it by one book. 

    How many pages did you read in 2013? 16,143 pages

    What month was your best reading month? 7 in December

    What month was your worst reading month? 0 finished in June-  I was reading Under the Dome and I didn't finish until July.  I could have finished it sooner, but I didn't enjoy the book at all. 

    Any additional comments, questions or concerns?  Got my Kindle last Christmas so all books this year were read on it and it was my best year ever.  Previously the most books I've read in a year was 37 and that was pre-kids.

    What month was your worst reading month?  May and June are tied with 1 book each, followed closely by July with 2 books read*

    Any additional comments, questions or concerns?  *May, June, and July were all really slow reading months for me.  This time period is also known as Era of The Fiery Cross, which single-handedly killed my totals for the year.  Yes, it's a long book (1,456 pages), but it took me an inordinate amount of time to slog through.  It is by far the longest I've spent reading a book and yes, I'm slightly bitter.  I still love DG and Outlander though.

Length had something to do with that but I still read almost 10k more pages this year. I'm really proud of this because of how much I was in school and working too. I was full time in both for much of the year.

  • I met my goal with 75 books! I could have scrambled but I'm taking a breath and also like the round number. :)

    I read approximately 24,000 pages.

    My best reading month was October or November.

    My worst reading month is typically April. Lots happening in spring, plus I tend to run out of some early in the year steam.

    While I'm not disappointed in my reads at all this year, I'm really hoping to hit upon some very memorable, fantastic, favorite-ever caliber books in 2014.

    How many books did you read in 2013?  20, possibly will be up to 21 by the end of the day.

    How many pages did you read in 2013?  8421, not including the four books I have going right now.  Wait, I just realized it doesn't count audio books so I have significantly more than that.

    What month was your best reading month?  December and January are tied with 4 each.  If I finish the book I am reading now.

    What month was your worst reading month?  March, May and July - read no books, or at least didn't finish one.  i was reading the Game of Throne books which took me forever to get through!  I blame that for some of my blank months.

    Any additional comments, questions or concerns?  I hope to up my game this coming year.  Read 52 a few years ago and I would like to reach that again.  Biggest book read was A Storm of Swrods at 1,177 pages.
