The old and new piles, sadly not as different as I'd like! Looks like my photography's getting worse too.
End of the sixth month of Reading Project, and the halfway point of the year.
The Beginning: 128 books
The start of this month: 94 books
- Read this month:
- Got: 3
- Chucked out: 0
That is not good progress. With good excuses, I've nevertheless only read three books this month - and all of those were newly-got. I've only really struck one book off the list, and that by slinging it out.
On the other hand, let's consider the year as a whole. I've done pretty darned well, to be honest. For a start, I've thrown out quite a few books that'd probably otherwise still be lurking on my shelves; the project gave me the impetus to decide no, I wasn't actually ever going to read them. I've read 60 books in six months, which is a lot by most standards - and that's not including comfort rereading. Even though I've picked up more than 30 books in that time (mostly gifts around Christmas) I've still cut the list down to 93, which only calls for reading 43 more in the next six months, which should be doable. And considering the depression and associated issues I'm dealing with, I think I can allow myself just a small measure of pride in that.
- Books read (for the first time) this year: 60
