  • Forgot this is the internet and people do lie on here. I have read all those books of course a lot of the Kindle ones are short stories but I still believe they count.

    I list my books I read at end of the year as a tradition. Started for me on Reddit just go look up my user name on there and you will see. Only reason I posted now instead of end of year because this the first time since childhood that I read 100 books.

    Why this is possible is two fold I am fast reader always have been, and second my job finally allows me to read at work. Second job that allows this.

    But I am always reading weather during my lunch break, or just relaxing at home on the weekend.




  • I can read over 200 pages in a day. Far as time honestly I read a majority of those at work. When we are slow and I am waiting for customers I read. I am lucky to have a boss that allows that.

    He used to gripe but I quit if he took my books away and besides I do my job and it doesn’t get in the way of doing that. Gasp he also allows me to seat on a stoll but it isn’t the most comfortable.


  • Also if you haven’t read it before I highly recommend The Wizard First Rule. It reminded me of a combination of Game of Thrones and Lord of the Rings.

    It is a massive world the author has created and this book by Terry Goodkind is just the first of a very large series called the Sword of Truth.

    I have bought the next three books in the series and look forward to reading them.

    Also I am huge murder mystery fan but I normally reading Agatha Christie or Jonathan Kellerman for my fix. But after reading Monday Morning and realized it was book 7 in the Tempe Brennan series I ordered and received the first in the series Deja Dead.

    Depending on how you enjoy your books csn use Libby for ebooks or buy books from Thriftbooks.com

    Also I found several great novels at Goodwill.





  • Stared one are the physical copies. How I kept ebooks from physical organized. The Maze Runner series would be the least favorite. I truly love all the John Grisham novels, and obviously Stephen King. I also surprisingly enjoyed the Witch Way Librarian Mystery series. Also highly recommend In The Lives of Puppets. Also can never go wrong reading Jason Pargin.
