Bumping because goodreads did something really good. Yay statistics. https://www.goodreads.com/user/year_in_books/2016 Went to go crow at my dad about how I had completed my challenge of 53 books and then noted that he's read 199 books so didn't. That will teach me for being slightly smug about reading Copperfield's 911 pages.

Agatha Christie is good for getting one's score up. Define addiction. my dad posted:Well, you have rather a busier life than I do! (re-posted with permission)

I'm with you there, read the Sherlock Holmes kindle omnibus thing and ended up finding a two part version to mark as read, because it didn't seem quite fair to read so many pages for 1 towards my challenge when you could just read a short story for the same reward. I got an average of 411 which I suspect is the actual average, also got told off for having a 4.2 star average rating. It's that high because 2016 has been so lovely that I deliberately re-read favourite books or picked books I knew I would enjoy. 2017 is a time for brain thoughting.

I personally get a great deal of enjoyment out of trying to beat my dad's goodreads score. Single player games are fun an' all, but liking the multiplayer mode is also a valid choice.

They are finally rolling out re-reads and it is good.

Or you could find a group which reads the things you like to read and talk to them instead. If you go into a YA group or YA book review section then you are going to find teenagers, it's like going to a bookstore on the day of a new JK Rowling release and complaining that there are too many wizards in there.
