I am also going to make a concerted effort to get more of the titles within these pages off of my to be read pile. I have often joked in the past that my plan for immortality was to read 1000 of these books and then not read the last one! I have currently read 120 of the books listed here, but as I turn 55 this year, I need to get a bit of a wiggle on! #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #BookLovers #Bibliophile #Bookworm #1001BooksYouMustReadBeforeYouDie #TBRpile

As most of the books that I read from this list are on my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) rather than physical copies, they never get a mention here. If you’ve been keeping tabs on my reading progress then you may have noticed that the number of book photos that I post does not tally with the number of books that I claim that I have read. I don’t post pictures of the books that I am reading on my Kindle. I shall endeavour to keep my Kindle progress updated in replies to this thread. #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Kindle #BookLovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile

The first ebook of the year is “Joseph Andrews and Shamela” by Henry Fielding #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Kindle #BookLovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile #HenryFielding #1001BooksYouMustReadBeforeYouDie

Three books read so far this year, next up for the ebook is “Taken at the Flood’ by Agatha Christie #CurrentlyReading #Kindle #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #BookLovers #Bookworm #AgathaChristie #HerculePoirot

Four books finished so far this year, the next ebook will be "The World According to Garp" by John Irving #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #BookLovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile

Nine books read so far this year, and my next ebook will be Black Dog by Neil Gaiman to complete the American Gods quartet #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #CurrentlyReading #BookLovers #Bookworm #NeilGaiman #AmericanGods #Bibliophile

Ten books into the year - I feel like I have cheated a bit: Black Dog was more of a short story than a novella, let alone a novel - but The Hotel Avocado by Bob Mortimer will be my next book of 2026. Although I am a huge fan of Bob’s work, I did find “The Satsuma Complex” a little underwhelming, but I feel the need to give Bob a second chance. #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #CurrentlyReading #Booklovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile #BobMortimer #TheHotelAvocado #GaryThorn

After finishing my 25th book of the year, the next ebook that I will be reading will be After the Funeral by Agatha Christie #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #Ebooks #KindleFire #AgathaChristie #HerculePoirot #AfterTheFuberal

I have just realised that I finished book number 33 on the train from Norwich, but didn’t make a post here to show what my next book of the year would be, this was due to an overhead power line failure in the Colchester area #Goodreads #Readingchallenge #CurrentlyReading #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #AlreadyFinished #AMessageFromUkraine #VolodymyrZelensky

Book 37 has been completed, so it’s onwards and upwards for my next reading journey #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #CautionaryTalesForGrownUps #ChrisAddison #Poetry

After finishing my 32nd book of the year, my next ebook will Joe Hill: The IWW & the Making of a Revolutionary Working Class Counterculture by Franklin Rosemont #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #Kindle #ebook #JoeHill #IWW #Wobbly #Wobblies #DontMournOrganise #Socialism #Socialist #TradeUnions

I have now read 29 books this year, and my next ebook will be Memoirs of Martinus Scriblerus. #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Bookworm #Booklovers #eBook #Kindle #MemoirsOfMartinusScriblerus #1001BooksYouMustReadBeforeYouDie

After finishing my 23rd book of the year, my quest to reread all of the James Bond novels - and buy the new editions to replace my tatty old secondhand copies - continues with John Gardner’s second contribution to the series. #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Booklovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile #JohnGardner #JamesBond #JamesBond007 #ForSpecialServices #BondJamesBond

After completing my twentieth book of the year, I have decided to reread this in light of the recent passing of Rob Grant #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #RobGrant #Incompetence #AdAstraRob

Nineteen books into the year so far and it’s time for one of those books that you have to read because people that read books tell you that you have to read this book! My next download onto my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) is going to be Crime and Punishment #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #Kindle #KindleFire #CrimeAndPunishment #FyodorDostoevsky #1001BooksYouMustReadBeforeYouDie

Fifteen books read already this year, so this becomes the next escapee from that teetering tower that is my to be read pile! (Actually, they’re safely stored in several carrier bags) #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #CurrentlyReading #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #TBRpile #BernieSanders #FightOligarchy #Socialism #Socialist

I have read fourteen books so far this year, and next up is something a bit different, except that I have read quite a few books about the sex industry in general, but erotic/exotic dancing and striptease specifically #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #CurrentlyReading #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #TimKeefe #SomeOfMyBestFriendsAreNaked #SexIndustry #SexWork #SexWorkIsWork

I am now thirteen books into 2026, and the next ebook will be Mrs McGinty's Dead by Agatha Christie #CurrentlyReading #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #Bibliophile #Booklovers #Bookworm #AgathaChristie #HerculePoirot
