Checkout my current reads below – the name of the 2020 game is 200 books (who am I kidding, it’s 250 – but I set the bar low in GoodReads).
Week fifteen of 2020 is well underway and I’m at 104 books read so far!
I was in a major reading slump at the end of March. I thought quarantine would up my reading game but, instead, it’s just bogging me down. I need to pick up the pace or I won’t get too 1000 books before I’m 30. Just kidding, I’ve got two and a half years yet and I’m already at over 400 read.
Currently Reading
- Diamond City by Francesca Flores 202/400 (50%) <– I started this ARC over the weekend and I’m enjoying it. It was officially released last month so I want to finish it soon.
- Wicked As You Wish by Rin Chupeco 91/432 (21%) <– I don’t love this one. But you all know, I hate to DNF books so I’m going to power through this one.
I have 37 weeks to finish everything that finds its way onto this list. I’ve got this!

1000 books before you’re 30, that’s a lot. I’m going to be lucky if I read 50 books this year. But I agree quarintine is not helping like I thought it would, I’ve actually slowed down.

I have a few years left and I’m at a little over 400 right now. I’m not sure if I’ll get there but I’m going to try my best 😊

Is there a reason you are doing it? Or just for fun?

Just for fun. I thought it would be a good way to challenge myself. I read this article a while back that said the average American adult only reads about 200 books in their life and that kind of horrified me. There are so many amazing stories out there and I want to read as many as I can.

That’s a very good reason 🙂 I am not the fastest reader but ye 200 in a whole life seems very small.

That’s what I thought too. When I really started tracking in goodreads, before 2019, I had less than 100 books read that I could really say I had read (not counting middle grade and younger books). The article went on to say that a goal of 10 books a year was “ambitious” for an average person.

You can read either Dark Skies or Dark Shores first – they take place at the same time
