I'm sitting at 120 books for this year, and there's 7 days left. Can I reach 125? Five books, seven days. The question is, how badly should I cheat? I don't want to read anything I've already read this year, so that counts out the Myth and the Incarnation books. I could do those, easy. Books that are in my To Be Read stack are right out – we're talking biographies and historical\/political books – I don't think I could finish one<\/i> by the 31st. I'm not really going to wimp out and read some of the children's books I have. I might<\/i> be able to finish off two Harry Potters, but I don't want to start those again until Half-Blood Prince comes out.<\/p>\n

I think I've got a couple of Sanford's Prey books that I haven't read, and a mystery or two – we'll see if I can make it. Five books, seven days.
