• Listen to 10 audiobooks 
• Read 8 classics
• Complete Read your Bookshelf Challenge

2021 Pages Read Challenge

     While I’m participating in a number of challenges that shows how many books you’ve read, I am joining as well the Pages Read challenge, which is hosted by Gina @ Book Dragon’s Lair. Gina does not seem to post any more or is having a break, but I still like this challenge and would like to continue with it just for my own statistics. According to this challenge you are judged by the number of pages you read.

Levels:

Bonsai - Read 12,000 pages
Shrub - Read 24,000 pages

Dwarf Peach - Read 36,000 pages

Apple Tree - Read  48,000 pages

Oak - Read 60,000 pages

Douglas Fir - Read 72,000 pages

Sequoia - Read 84,000 pages

Redwood - Read 84,001+ pages

Dwarf Peach (36,000 pages) is a nice deal, but I will set my goal to 24,000 (Shrub) again this year.  In 2020 I have read only 26562 pages, so no point to add pressure to my reading.
