2014-01-11 [hanhepi]: My goal is 1. By golly, I'm only 190 pages from the end of a book right now... I better actually meet my goal this year!
2014-01-11 [windowframe]: Of course e-books count. X_x it would be absurd and unjustifiable to let one person count a physical copy of Jane Eyre, and not let another person count an electronic copy of exactly the same book.
2014-01-11 [Ms. Steel]: Ewww, Jane Eyre!
2014-01-12 [windowframe]: Needed less Jane, more Bertha.
2014-01-12 [Ms. Steel]: To be honest, it's been eighteen or nineteen years since I've read it, and I can really only recall my supreme dislike for the book. :-I
2014-01-13 [Nioniel]: Just wondering if anyone counts audio books. I know it's not really reading, technically, but I'm still curious.
2014-01-13 [Yncke]: I haven't counted them in my list.
2014-01-13 [windowframe]: I tried to read it when I was around 15 and just found Jane so profoundly annoying and whiney, and overdramatic. I started it again a couple of years ago and found her... still whiney and annoying, but a lot more bearable. But the incident in the red room at the start and the mad woman in the attic are still the best parts as far as I'm concerned. <_<
2014-01-13 [windowframe]: I documented them separately on the page, but didn't count them towards my total. But I wouldn't object to people counting audio books.
2014-01-13 [Nioniel]: Since I've been commuting to and from work so much lately, I've been listening to a lot of audio books. I like the idea of documenting them but not counting them. Thanks!
2014-01-13 [Ms. Steel]: Maybe I should give Jane Eyre another go in that case. :-I
I have counted audio books in my total, but I do feel (just for personal reasons) a little like a cheat. HOWEVER... I can consume two books at once that way, and my time commuting to work is not wasted. The majority of the books on my list were actually read, though.
2014-01-13 [Nioniel]: The audio books I've been listening to have been ones I've already read multiple times; namely the Harry Potter series. It's a fun way to pass the otherwise boring travel time. Plus, like you said, it's a good way to be working on two books at once!
2014-01-29 [Yncke]: For those enjoying audiobooks: there's a humble audiobook bundle going, at the moment: https://www.hu
2014-03-11 [CuteCommander]: Well done Nio for doing the best so far :)
2014-07-02 [CuteCommander]: Looking at the lists of others, I really read some trash in comparison!
2014-08-07 [windowframe]: Pratchett, King and Tolkien are not trash! :O
2014-08-24 [Triola]: Halfway!
2014-09-25 [Linderel]: Read short books? :P
2014-09-30 [Triola]: Maybe :P
2015-01-01 [CuteCommander]: I failed! At least gives me a better idea of what to aim for this year
