NPF 50 Book Challenge
 
Now that I have established that there are several other hardcore readers on the forum, I figured I would make another thread for those who wish to participate in the 50 book challenge. Remember this is a motivational tool. If you read more than 50, that's great. If you don't make it, you probably still read more than when you weren't keeping track. You can start whenever you want. Post when you feel like it. I will probably try to post at the end of each month. (I'll start in November, since I am partway in two books right now.) Try to include a little synopsis of each book so that others can see if they would like it.

Just a few things to keep in mind: don't post spoilers unless it's under a spoiler tag, and if you're going to write long reviews, remember to code them.

I started this past Saturday with Animal Farm by George Orwell which mirrors real life so well (Despite the fact it's about anthropomorphic animals.) it's scary.

Well, it started with this thread, which has a link to the livejournal 50bookchallenge. Basically it is motivation for people to finish (or at least try to read) 50 books in a year.

i dunno. I think since the beggining of January i've already read 50 books. That's not including ones for school. I particularily enjoyed 'The Romanovs', a biography of the final days of the last tzar, and analyzes all the false claims of people who want to be Romanovs.

Finished The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle today. Before that I read A Fine and Private Place by the same author.

hmmm, that sounds pretty awesome, I'll definitely take that challenge up.

Ok....I started. It sounds like a good use of my time, and if it's not at least i will enjoy myself.

I'll start on the first of the year. Keep it nice and dramatic, and particularly meaningless when I finish it in mid-July.
