Library
I finished the New Moon book while I was in San Luis Obispo and just checked out the next 2 books in the series at the library. I'm not sure which number I'm on on my 100 books a year list. It's getting hard to keep track of. I just know I'm way behind. I keep picking long books, and sometimes I don't get around to reading every day.

Reading Goal
I read some tips from other readers that managed to read 100 books a year. First off, they are in the process of reading more than one book at a time. Which makes sense. You can have a book near anywhere you tend to sit, so by the bed, by the couch, and in the bathrooms, and in the car. You spend more time reading instead of hunting for the book. So I'm down with that.
I've also started reading with a bookmark. I don't need it all the time, but when the TV is on or people are talking, I can put it under each line I'm reading and then find my place a lot quicker if I have to look up and talk to someone.
Right now I'm in the middle of reading Druids. And I have Coyote Waits by Tony Hillerman sitting by my computer so I can read that when I get a chance.
I also want to go to the library soon. I'd like to read Twilight and Inkheart so I can at least get on the waiting list for those.
