I've been doing pretty well with my other goal, which was to review every book I read. I fell behind a bit because of my Thanksgiving vacation and computer troubles, but I should catch up with that over the next several days.

So tell, me...how many books did you read last month? Are you meeting all your reading goals?

You read way more books per month than I do. I must be a slow reader.
With everything you have going on (job, kid, freelance, challenges, blogging) and you have already hit 119??? You are amazing!
November shaped up to be a fantastic month for you!!!
Great month :D
I actually counted yesterday, but now I have forgotten, perhaps it was 10 and I am more than happy
You put me to shame! I feel as if I read a lot, but not as much as you. You had a great reading month!
I read one of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Books recently, my 13 year old daughter borrowed a copy and she loved it so my 11 and 16 year old daughters read it also so I read it to show support -I enjoyed it
Great reading month! I wish I had been around for the WWII challenge, but I only started blogging a couple of months ago. I'm definitely looking forward to being in on the Vietnam challenge!

Great reading month Anna! As for reading goals I'm starting over for 2010. I'll make 100+ in books but I think that's the only one I've succeeded in.
I only did 8 books for November...distracted by work and NaNoWriMo.
Your numbers are very impressive!
You had a great month!
Thanks, everyone! Honestly, if I didn't have so much time to read on my work commute, my totals would be much lower. And now that my home computer is out of commission, I use the time I would spend online to read. :)
~mel u: I think that's great, how you support your children's reading habits. I think that's so important. Glad to hear you enjoyed the book, too.
You've had a great month (and year!), Anna.
I'm impressed that you've (mostly) kept up with reviewing the books you read. I have quite a stack that are read but not yet reviewed ...
What will you set for a 2010 goal?
Glad you read Sarah's Key....I think that was the first book I read for the War challenge back towards the beginning of the year...I'll be interested to hear what you thought of it.
119 books? Wow. I'll make 100 this year (barely), but November was rough...I think I only read 4 or 5 books last month.
I didn't read as many as usual in Nov because I was in Africa for more than half the month, but my yearly totals are about the same as yours!
I did pass my modified goal for the year and I beat last year's count so I'm OK with how many books I 've read. I have a few of your reviews-soon titles on my upcoming to be read. Our bookclub just voted for Sarah's Key.
Wow! You had a great month! I read 1 book last month and a few re-reads.
Yes, November did just fly by! You did very well this month, 14 books is not easy task (at least not for me,lol). And 119 book for the year is wonderful, although by the time I write this comment you raised that total :)
Thanks everyone! Hope you're finishing all the books you wanted to get to this year. As for me, I'm still catching up with reviews I should have posted in November! LOL
