Book Log

I read a lot. I've been keeping a book log since the beginning of 1999. I've read 1864 books since then (about 92 books per year).

Below is the list for this year. See complete list.

Currently Reading

For Whom the Bell Tolls
by Ernest Hemingway This book was chosen by Rachel of the Hungry Hundred Book Club for August 2018.

Organizational Theory, Design, and Change (7th ed.)
by Gareth R. Jones I got a good price on this textbook even though it seems to be the current edition. Seems like an interesting subject.

40 books finished so far.

11,836 pages in the selected books (an average of about 295 pages each).

That's an average of about 9 days per book (assuming no overlap) or 6 days per book (taking actual overlap into consideration), which is equivalent to 40 books (or 11,868 pages) per year. Or 33 pages per day, actually.

Typical number of books in progress simultaneously: 1.

Fiction books: 30 (75%)
Non-fiction books: 10 (25%)
