Summer Vacation is Over

It doesn't look like I'm going to even come close to my goal of twenty books. This summer has been pretty busy with visiting family from far away places like Canada and Alabama, so I have good reasons for not making my goal. There were many days when my family, my wife and two young kids, took day trips to the beach or a park and reading simply could not be done. I'm fine with that. But for the last two weeks, I haven't been as foucused as I should have been on my reading because I was caught up in the Olympics. I probably could have gotten in a few more books, which there is no excuse for.

From now until Christmas, I'm going to try to read another twenty books. We'll see how close I come to that goal. I have two more days before my first deadline ends, so I should finish will eleven books over the summer. Could have been better, but I'll take it. Wish me luck on my next twenty.

I'll be putting up three new reviews in the next couple days.

Twenty books or two hundred books, the goal to me is always reading something wonderful! Good luck on your goal and I'm anxious for your reviews. I liked that Lippman book you posted.

Good luck reaching your goal!

My own blog about books keeps me reading.
