Countdown Challenge
Duration: 10/10/10 – 11/11/11
Total to Read: 48/66 – (73%)
This is no surprise. The first Countdown challenge started 8 August 2008 (8-8-08) and I’ve yet to complete one. I’ve done better this year than the previous two years:
- 2008-2009 = 27 books out of 45 = 60%
- 2009-2010 = 22 books out of 55 = 40%
- 2010-2011 = 48 books of 66 = 73%
The years I read all requirements for:
- 2001 — This was the first year I read a book with a 2001 copyright date
- 2007 — This was the only year I completed “2007”
- 2010 — I made up for the dismal reading year
- 2011 — Oddly, this is the only year I completed the current year
Though I didn’t complete the challenge, I’m satisfied with the results and I’m not interested in continuing this challenge to 12-12-12. Three years is enough and I want to concentrate on the other personal challenges I established for myself in 2012.
