Is this book reading challenge unreachable?

Hello folks.
I know a lot of people this year are doing a reading challenge. It looked like fun, so I challenged myself to read 700 books this year.
I just now realized that it's a completely unreachable goal.
Let's just add that to my list of blonde moments, shall we? If anyone reading this is doing a reading challenge, how many books are you hoping to read?? And should cookbooks count (for some strange reason, I absolutely adore reading cookbooks)? I know this is a short post, but I don't have much to post about at the moment besides this, and the fact that I have a huge recital coming up. Yikes.

  1. 700?! Whoah....O_O That's a lot of books but anything's possible if you put your mind to it. ^_^

    My challenge is 50 books by the end of the year; the same as last year. I was 4 off my goal last year. :(

  2. i really REALLY dont want to rain on your parade - i am not a byatch, please believe me. but 700 books...is beyond the realms of impossible. unless they're y'know, picture books. if you wanted to read 300 books in a year, you'd have to read about five books a week. ergo if you wanted to read 700 books, thats...uhh...quite a lot. my goal this year is 50, and im doing pretty well. remember, its dead hard to reach 100, so set yourself a manageable goal; i tried a hundred last year and read, um, 28 :L
