I can not get over how many great books you read Amber. I love visiting your blog to add new books to my wishlists!
I have only read 21 books so far this year, but I am officially on Spring Break for the next 8 days so hope to get some reading done.
Thanks for the great reviews and for holding such a wonderful contest. Congratulations on 100 read. I will be eager to read about the next 100 as well.
Hugs,
Wendy

I have read 43 books so far (I have a lot of time at work to read) and am shooting for at least 100 this year (may be a little hard because I am 7 months pregnant and once the baby come not going to have much time)

Yup, I only just finished book #11 this year. But in my defense, it is the 2nd Chunky book (>450 pages) that I've read. Those ones seem to take me at least 2-3 weeks and seriously skew my numbers. Actually, the one I started today, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, is 734 pages! So that'll be my 3rd Chunky!
Though I might have to stop midway through, even though that's something I never do, and read a couple books I owe to terra57 so I can take them to her when I see her at the end of April.

okay, so I've only read 19 books so far this year,but there's been lots of other stuff taking up my time. I'd love to be entered in your contest.

Gosh Amber 100 books already. Wow! I am only on my 23rd but things have been out of sorts anywho. I love checking out your blog to see what's good and what's not so keep up the good work.

You mean to say you've read 100 books in three months? Wow....
I've only managed to read 22, which, compared to you, is like a drop in the ocean of speed reading! :p

Holy Smokes!! 100 in 3 months? Wow! I'm probably around 40 to 50. You are the speed reading goddess my friend. :) Keep up the awesome reviews!
At 29 March 2008 at 16:49,
Wow, I'm impressed! Wish I could read that fast. I've finished 30 books so far this year.

33. I used to read a lot more, but I'm spending more time on the computer, with the TV, other stuff.
Just added you to Last.fm - hope you don't mind.
Have a lovely day! :-)

Congrats on the 100th book you've read this year! I've probably read over 100 stories this year, but not books.
I'd like to be entered into the drawing for La Vida Vampire by Nancy Haddock.
And a personal thanks for getting me back to my favorite blog site! Your page is set up very nicely.
turn the page,

I don't count my reads anymore, so I'm not sure of the exact number. Around 33 or so, I think? Does that mean I can't enter?
Congrats on reading 100! I just don't have that kind of reading time anymore!

Yay a contest! I'm really liking this giving away books on blogs idea, it's fun! I hope to do it too, but I better wait until I actually have people come over and visit my blog! LOL!
I believe I'm up to about 25 books this year if you count my audios and Manga, I think only 16 if you don't!
Thanks for the contest Amber! You certainly read a lot faster than me!
At 31 March 2008 at 10:50,
Dang, girl, you are really flying through the books! LOL Way to go!!
I've completed 21 books so far this year, and am reading books 22 and 23 now. I'll be doing good to make your 100 mark by the close of '08. heheheh

It's a huge honor that La Vida Vampire was your 100th, and I thank you for your lovely review!
On to the next 100!

100 books! That's more than a book a day, you must have a really great speed reading skill. Wish I have it too, there are too many good books waiting to be read. As it is, I've only read about 25 books so far this year.

Congrats on 100th book! Wow, that's great. :)
I think I've read about 20 or so books so far this year; which is pretty good considering I've been crazy busy with school, clinicals, etc.
At 1 April 2008 at 11:50,
I've *finished* about 5 books, but I've *started* about 20. I have a large night-stand and Rori Gilmore ADOS (attention deficit oooh shiny).
At 1 April 2008 at 14:01,
I'm going to guess that I've read 35 books so far, which is fewer per week than I read last year, but only because I've actually been WRITING, not just reading. :)
At 1 April 2008 at 19:18, Unknown

This post is certainly fascinating. Love reading how much each one does. If I am on the computer then my reading is less. But I do read 3 per week no matter what. This year 45 or so books.

Wow can't believe how many books you've read so far. I've only got 12 under my belt so far this year. So many books and not enough time! tWarner419@aol.com

Well done on the hundred. I'm supremely jealous. I'm not sure why but the more Book blogs I find, the more great books I hear about, the more I realise that (for whatever reason) many of them don't make it to my neck of the woods :P~~~~. Still, I think I've managed to rack up around 40-60 this year (I don't usually count).
Cheers

Wow, that's a lot of books! I've only read 21 so far this year, and started who knows how many and either gave up on or haven't finished yet. It's way down from previous years due to my health. I'd love the chance to read this though. Thanks for the offer! :)
Happy reading!

Wow! I wish I had that many books to read. I have a 2 year old, so that makes it a little tough. Also, a husband who does require some attention. Sadly, I don't have that many books available to me. I moved from the USA to Slovakia and I don't speak the language yet. But, I was so wanting books, I even went to Vienna looking!
At 3 April 2008 at 13:24, Unknown
I'm no where near 100. I'm so jealous :lol: I'm at 16... but that number will shoot right up starting once exams are over at the end of April! Congrats on the landmark number. How many do you generally averge in a year?

Hey Amberkatze! You read so, so many books and always have the most interesting ones! Congrats on your 100th book of the year.
At 3 April 2008 at 16:42,
Well done on reading 100 books so far this year. I have only read 47 - I've got a long way to go.
I really like visiting your web site, you read so many interesting books. Your site has add many book to my TBR pile. Keep up the good work.

You read a *lot* more books than I do. As of 31 March, I have completed 33 books. Given that some of the books I read are VERY long and others are quite short, this year I'm keeping track not only of the number of books, but the number of pages. Those 33 books represent 12,072 pages read this year.
At 4 April 2008 at 20:28, Rashmi
Wow, now that's a lot. I used to read a book a day, but since Kiddo's arrival, my reading's down considerably. I've only managed 27 so far, a far cry from your impressive 100 - congrats on that! I hope I reach 100 or at least cross a bit over by the end of the year.
I hadn't heard of this book yet, but it sounds interesting.
I also have tons of giveaways listed on both my blogs, A Book Blogger’s Diary and A Bookworm’s Diary. Hope you'll drop by.
Thanks,

Thanks for the contest Amber! *hugs*

Hi Amberkatze, I have just done a quick count and I have read about 70 books so far this year. This is mainly cos I read instead of watching TV. I love the pics on your blog.
