Ooh, that sounds good! I'll have a look at that. Thanks for the link. I have read 54 books this year. *is pleased*

I read FotR, half of TTT, and Brave New World for school. Oh yes, and I read most of The Screwtape Letters. All great books  I usually read more during the summer, but this summer has been busier than usual.
So far this month I finished Screwtape Letters, and I read Song of Solomon for school (which wasn't my favorite). I'm a little over halfway through Blue Like Jazz by Donald Miller, which I highly reccomend.

Well, let's see. I read all seven Narnia books, the whole Earthsea stuff by Ursula K. Le Guin, and "Jonathan Strange & Mr Norell" by Susanna Clarke (holidays and a hurt leg, so what else should I do  !?).
Now, I'm just starting Virgina Woolf's "Orlando"...

I read at least one for every day of the month, if not more. I read a LOT. I probably read LotR over twice...and both Inkheart books....

Sadly I only read 3 books last month, and they weren't very long, accept TTT of course. I'm still finding it hard to find good books to read. I'm just so bloody picky sometime's.

I've never been much of a mystery person, if I was that's what I'd be reading too. I've heard her books are really good.

^ Oh, yes they are. Some are better than others but I haven't read a bad one yet. They are the only mystery books I read but I watch a lot of detective shows and films.

I think the best reading marathon I ever managed was 5 books in two weeks - each numbering about 600 pages. My friends thought me bonkers.
