I find anything over 10 for me to be pretty impressive, but then I&#39;m always amazed when I&#39;ll see people who read over 20 books/month consistently. I&#39;m hoping to have an amazing July, but who knows? This week I haven&#39;t finished a book since Sunday! :-/<br /><br />Jack W. Regan ~ Thanks for stopping by again! And you&#39;re most welcome. I&#39;m ready for book 2 ;-)Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13068354108178290445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-76326602888903113802009-07-02T13:07:01.468-04:002009-07-02T13:07:01.468-04:00You&#39;re just a reading machine!

I&#39;d say for *most* people 15 books is a stellar month! Some of these book bloggers are just crazy. :) I managed to get in 4, but with work being as busy as it was, I&#39;m happy with that. I hope your July is just as great! (And you still got lots of time for the classics challenge).Trishhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-50270770123862846042009-07-01T18:46:51.752-04:002009-07-01T18:46:51.752-04:00Thanks Amanda!<br /><br />Jess ~ I think you should keep going. As I recall, I had a hard time getting into it at first as well, and then at some point something clicked and I couldn&#39;t put it down. Or who knows, it could be that you just need to come back to it later! :-)<br /><br />Scrap Girl, Dar &amp; Natalie W ~ Thank you! I was rather surprised when I saw all I&#39;d manage to read :-)<br /><br />Toni ~ Interestingly, I haven&#39;t felt motivated to read much this week, and I&#39;m at the start of 5 weeks off between jobs, when I thought I&#39;d be reading like crazy. I hope it&#39;s not a sign of a slump, but I suppose they happen to all of us. Good luck!! 3 books/month is better than 0 books/month :-DMelissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13068354108178290445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-76534893128277947382009-07-01T18:42:32.846-04:002009-07-01T18:42:32.846-04:00What a great month you had. I review everything I read.. and I am in a huge slump... about 3 books per month. and that makes me grumpy...Tonihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09583701020058927481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-6929492137573712942009-07-01T17:12:06.274-04:002009-07-01T17:12:06.274-04:00Wow thats a lot of books!

I noticed that you gave City of Bones 5 stars. I have been trying to read the first 50 pages of this all week, but keep stalling. Should I keep trying or is it just not for everyone?Jesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05053463512324781210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-2457324440073405842009-07-01T14:32:17.844-04:002009-07-01T14:32:17.844-04:00Excellent job, Melissa!Amandahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07026099426503180472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-12096732518377153302009-07-01T14:00:18.647-04:002009-07-01T14:00:18.647-04:00Oh, I also got rid of the embedded comment form, and I think that really sped things up a bit...Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13068354108178290445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-57554018574022713532009-07-01T13:58:29.491-04:002009-07-01T13:58:29.491-04:00Thanks, Kaye! I&#39;m almost a little too OCD about reviewing every book I read, usually within a day or so after finishing. I guess now it&#39;s just become a habit. I think the faster load time is in part because I moved the background images to my Photobucket account after the designer&#39;s account exceeded its limit. Glad it&#39;s working better for you!Melissahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13068354108178290445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8813022479875184211.post-18887980545481388912009-07-01T13:55:40.050-04:002009-07-01T13:55:40.050-04:00Wow, I am impressed that you reviewed every book you read. I only review probably a quarter of what I read. That&#39;s something I need to work on. I like your new header and it loads super faster than before.Kayehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10282803815704229945noreply@blogger.com
