At the beginning of last year, my Dad and I decided to do a reading contest. WE would keep track of how many books we read and even the number of pages. I didn't read as many as I would have liked but oh well, always next year or this year:)
Here is my 2009 list of books read:
1. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin 350 pages

4. My Antonia by Willa Cather 234 p
5. Sir Gibbie by George MacDonald 267 p
6. Mrs. C. H. Spurgeon by Ray Charles Ray 122 p
7. Creative Counterpart by Linda Dillow 217 p
8. War of Words by Paul Tripp 245 p
9. A Heart that Says Welcome by Karen Ehman 235 p
10. The Great Bridge by David McCullaugh 562 p

Total: 20 Books and 6,316 pages.
I also like to read the Bible through in a year.
I haven't asked my Dad yet, but I'm sure he beat me.
You have some great ones one here that I am interested in! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOK, If I list the movies comparable to books you read, will that count as reading?! Reading is on my list of things to do in 2010!! LOl!!
ReplyDeleteDid you enjoy "The Great Bridge?" Mike has read all his biographies recently and not sure if he'd want to read his non-biographical works...
