I am a subscriber to the web site Good Reads, which is a social networking site for readers. I was looking at their 2011 Reading Challenge, which is designed to motivate people to read more books during the next year. The average challenge number is 72 books. Now, I was encouraged by this number because I think it is a lot--especially considering all the data that shows that a large part of our population reads absolutely nothing. Now my coworker came along and said 72 books is that it? What do you think? Not enough or way to go!

For those of us who love to read, we could certainly do better than 72 books a year. Unfortunately, with the demands of daily life (work & family) I am left with little time to lose myself in a great book. That time generally only comes when I can finally get to bed after a long day. I look forward to checking out the website though.:)
