Well, it's not like you can read them all at once - you'd have to read the LotR and Narnia books in order, at least. I'm the kind of person who's happiest when reading two or three books at the same time, but I haven't had time to do something like that in ages. Winter break is coming up though... ^^

Nothing will happen if you don't get started. Just pick a few books out and jump right in!

I have books that I want to read, but, like Rindi, I prefer going for two or three at a time. Right now I've been trying to finish a couple from the library, but I haven't had the time to read them. And they're already overdue, too. ._.;; I figure I'll just keep them over Winter break and return them when classes start again. :x

Well, I can read a book a day but I prefer to read several at a time, that way if it's a really good book I can space it out over a longer period. I read Half-Blood Prince in like 4 hours all at once and now I'm upset with myself because I won't have any more HP to read for anoher year. Sad

TarlRawks... ...please, a bit of proper spelling? I-I don't know if that's seriously how you write or not.... O_O

Uhm, lesse... there are plenty of books I want to read, but the problem for me is mostly finding them/begging my parents to take me to Borders. There are so many good books I see...
HP got boring for me. . . . .

; I usually don't read series, as that's a big part of the problem of finding all the books. Just one-time stories are fine for me. Very Happy

I once was in the middle of the Bartemaeus trlogy then I made a list to read: Eragon, Eldest, New Darren Shan, Eat shoots and leaves, Harry potter series (6), original darren shan series (12) and then I kinda had a big urge to read just harry potters 5 + 6 and so I did. Then the whole list was messed up.
