snakecharmer998's "1000 books by age 30?"

Add to my lists | Print this list

Alright, so I’m an avid reader. I used to get in trouble as a child for reading by flashlight after bedtime. Funny thing is, my mother later admitted that she did too. Go figure.

So, on Jeopardy a few months ago, I saw a lady in her late 50’s/early 60s say that she’d read over 700 books. I figured I’d see what I’ve read. I’m sure I’ve missed quite a few, but from memory and my personal library, I’ve created this list. I’m pretty proud of it, as I’m only 27.

Included is everything from my favorite books as a kid (I’m trying to limit from age 10 or so, thus no Ramona Quimby or Dr. Seuss, though I’ve included Black Stallion books which I still own) At an average rate of 200 pages a day, this list will continue to grow. Please bear with me, as it’s currently over 500, and will take a while to add all of it
