Still reading The Crystal Shard by R. A. Salvatore. First book of The Icewind Dale Trilogy, and The Legend of Drizzt / Forgotten Realms series (publication order).

Book is pretty fast paced and full of action. Really enjoying it.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

Wow, that’s a really good number. Good luck reaching 200 books!

lol I pretty much listen to audiobooks all day while active doing other stuff. If I really wanted a high number, I’d either stop re-listening to stuff or go through the hassle of tracking every time I listen and let goodreads count all those towards this year.

I hate the effort of actually adding stuff to goodreads though, so I definitely don’t care enough to count how many times I read books.

Hehe, fair enough.

I can’t multitask at all. If I am listening to audio-book, I need to stop everything and just listen to it, but then it gets boring because I am just listening.

I like numbers though, stats, graphs, charts, lists. Those are fun, so try to log everything I can. Don’t care about sharing them, but they are fun for me.

I want to replace goodreads, because it kind of sucks and my preference would be showing (and tagging/blurbing/listing) books by author/series instead of individual books, but none of the alternatives do what I want and I never seem to have time to roll my own version.

But on the plus side you can export your lists through the website, so I keep up the tracking I can there with the intent of eventually doing it myself and doing some basic self hosting.
