Thing 47

47. Clear 50 books off my TBR shelves

This week, as part of thing 50 (cleaning/fixing up my house every May), I tackled my bookcases. I thought it would take a day, maybe two, but ended up taking an entire week. I did manage to fit about 200 new books onto my shelves and I cleared 90 books off. So I nearly doubled my goal here for this thing! I have renewed my interest in and commitment to many of the books still on my To Be Read shelves, so I'm hoping to keep the momentum going.

Thing 8

8. Read 5 books in the Dinotopia series

This week, I read two more Dinotopia books, thanks to the Borrow-a-thon reading challenge. One was pretty terrible, but the other revisited the structure and style of the first book, so I enjoyed it a whole lot more.

Here are books #4 and #5 that I read for this:
Dinotopia: First Flight by James Gurney
Dinotopia: Journey to Chandara by James Gurney
