Well, how cool is this? So neat that we share interest in some of the same books. You’re ahead of me, though. I purchased quite a few books and am storing them for when I’ll have more time. Speaking of that, I just finished Elevation by Stephen King, and I loved it. The one before that was Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, which was great, but nothing like Stephen King can do. He is just so masterful with language, and I love his later work (I.e., the non-scary stuff!). So, I am now reading his Storm of the Century, which is a little more graphic than I’d like, but the setting of the story sounded intriguing. It is not nearly as good as the book about the Kennedy assination, nor Elevation. So I will opt for something lighter next. I have When the Crawdad Sings and a few others that you’ve posted here. I will need to check my list and trade notes with you!

That’s wonderful that you’re such an avid reader: my late sister, June, was, too! There have been times in my life that I’ve enjoyed reading. But things just seem too busy right now. So, I’m leaving a comment, but please don’t include me in the giveaway!

Well as usual I am reading several books at once. Professionally, The Gift of the Nutcracker. Personally, Almost Everything by Anne Lamott. Also, Fantastic Beasts, and The Girl with No Name.

For me, there’s nothing more relaxing than sitting down with a hot cup of tea and a book. We have that in common, my friend. And we also have the same number of books read so far this year! Can you believe that? Right now I’m reading a Christmas novel that I picked up at a garage sale this fall entitled Christmas at Stoney Creek by Martha Rogers. I really need to follow your suggestion and put my list of books read on Goodreads instead of keeping a written list in a notebook. 🙂

This is an incredible number of books you have read in one year. Wow. I am currently reading Alaskan Holiday by Debbie Macomber. It’s a quick read, not my usual reading material. But with less time to read during this season, it’s ideal.

100 things to do in Omaha before you die. Great title! I’m reading three books right now… Through A Glass Lightly – Confessions Of A Reluctant Water Drinker – From the London Library. Secondly Heat by Bill Buford & Bureau of Spies – The Secret Connection Between Espionage and Journalism in Washington – Steven T Usdin! Happy reading!

I love to read, but I can’t even imagine reading 130 books in one year. Or setting a goal of 110!!! I’ll have to go look at my numbers on Goodreads…I didn’t set a goal in 2018. Maybe I should for 2019!

How cool to see all of your reading stats. I have been doing a lot better at reading this year too and I’m loving it! Right now I’m reading “Fly Away” by Kristin Hannah.

Audiobooks have changed my whole “reading” game. I still love “real” books, but audiobooks have allowed me to read in the car (safely and without wanting to throw up!) and while engaging in my other hobby. It’s been my best reading year ever! I currently have An American Marriage going via audiobook and a variety of others in progress via e- and paper versions.

You’re having a wonderful reading year!! I’m SOOOO slow right now. I’m reading Michelle Obama’s Becoming, but also a few others. Yikes. Here’s hoping I finish at least one of them, I’m closing in on 60 books … I set a smaller goal this year.

I am not reading a book right now except my bible and devotionals. Sadly I am not a big reader. Thanks for the offer but it should go to some one who reads a lot.

Wow. Wow. Wow. That’s a lot of books. I love that you read so much and enjoy it. One day I hope I will too. I recently finished reading This is how it always is by Laurie Frankel. Great story. Ive starting reading The divine secrets of the yaya sisterhood in fits and spurts and hope to finish it soon so I can dive into the second book of Nora Roberts new trilogy – waited a whole year for it. 🙂

What a list! I’m supposed to read The Mothers by Monday Book Club so I’ve got to get going on that!

I’m reading “Forever” by Pete Hamill – it’s one of the 3 books I bought at the library sale when I was with you. The other 2 I couldn’t get through but I love this one. Love the way he writes but also love the story as it fits nicely into my favorite genre – historical fiction. Follows a child through his life starting in the early 1700’s in Ireland and ending in NYC in the 2000’s – yes you read that right! He has a very long life…..

I’m reading The Lake House by Kate Morton. I’ve been power reading the past week weeks and finally blew past my Goodreads goal for 2018.

Missed the giveaway, so I’m commenting for the cause…Currently reading: Septembers of Shiraz, by Dalia Sofer (intense, painful, informative, and full of faith). Recently read: Life Begins When the Kids Leave Home and the Dog Dies, by Barb Taub (very funny, published on Amazon, recommended to everyone but those with coughs or broken ribs); Don’t Call Me Doctor, by Jack Stallard (mildly funny, nostalgic, Southern Appalachian, sort of thing 1 sponsor wishes I could write, too bad I will never be a Good Old Boy); Such a Pretty Fat, by Jen Lancaster (funny, raunchy, could dwell longer on the pleasure of exercise). Book review posts can be expected…when I get the personal contact information out of my Paypal account so I can revive it. Will try to do more with Goodreads in the New Year.
