I read a total of 52 books in 2010 which is a personal best! I set a goal of 50 as a New Year's resolution and made it.:eek:
The average length of each book was 323 pages which meant I averaged 46 pages per day.
Even more impressive was that I finished every book I started. Still not sure...
I know Shadforth has his http://www.bookandreader.com/forums/f25/your-best-books-of-10-a-21168.html thread and I don't wish to undermine it in any way. I was just hoping people could limit themselves to mentioning the 3 favourite books that they read in 2010.
Mine were:
Girl With A Pearl...
I read The Wasp Factory after I first joined BAR and saw it mentioned in a few threads such as http://www.bookandreader.com/forums/f25/scary-or-disturbing-book-7390.html and http://www.bookandreader.com/forums/f25/what-is-the-darkest-most-disturbing-book-3030.html

I got my recommendations from Tai_Mai_Shu today!
I have also given and received recommendations with/from cajun_duck who was a late comer but wanted to participate.

I know what you mean... I sent a recommendation to brk_3.
I enjoy recommending books to people so I don't mind. Hope you don't mind either!
Just trying to make it that we all get a recommendation (even though we all had to recommend twice).
Shall we go with:
Libra== recommends a book to => Tai_Mai_Shu
Fantasy Moon == recommends a book to => Libra
Eldog == recommends a book to => Fantasy Moon
Tai_Mai_Shu == recommends a book to => Eldog
If Joderu95 and Reads To Sleep haven't received recommendations, perhaps they could...
Is it just Libra, Fantasy Moon and myself (Eldog) that didn't receive recommendations?
Joderu, Tai_Mai_Shu and Reads To Sleep...did any of you end up getting recommendations?
I say we give the recommenders until the end of the year and then any remaining members without recommendations...
Welcome AMG!
Nice to see a fellow Queenslander. And trust me I know what you mean about the rain!
I love this forum and have found so many new authors and books as a result of it's member's recommendations.
Enjoy!
I own quite a few of her selections.
Here's my 2 cents: there is not enough book related discussions on TV. Anything that encourages reading should be applauded. Nuff said.
Short but I only promised 2 cents worth ;)
