March Wrap-Up <~~I read a few books in March.
First Quarter Hall of Fame (I pick my favorite books from the first quarter of 2013)I’ve started using PaperBackSwap. I signed up forever ago but Shannon from River City Reading inspired me to actually use the service.
My Goodreads goal for the year was 125 books. I’ve just upped it to 150. I might increase my goal again at some point if I keep tearing through the books the way I have been.

I hope you’ll come hang out with me on Twitter and Facebook. It’ll be fun, I promise!
The Relentless Reader 
My Goodreads goal is 200 this year but I just don't know if I'm gonna reach it. Not reading as fast this year as I did last year. Oh well, we'll see 🙂 Happy reading this week 🙂 What are you reading this week @ the Brunette Librarian’s Blog and feel free to enter to win a gift card at A Guest Post by Samantha Hunter

It looks like you already made a very good start this year, so 150 books should be do-able! Have a great reading week, kind regards,

150 sounds alright at the rate you're going! Definitely keep your previous goals in mind, though, it'd show just how much progress you've made over the months.

150 books! That's crazy! Mine is but half that and lets just say I'm not exactly on track currently. Upping your count does seem like a good move considering the amount of books you're racing through, I'm sure you'll even surpass 150. Haha!Here's to another good week 🙂

I like your Goodreads goal, Jennifer. I didn't set myself a target per se, but I am really really hoping I can reach 1000 reviews on my blog by the end of the year – I'm currently at 905. That's 95 books to read this year! Not sure that my chances are great, with the way I've slowed down.The Gods of Heavenly Punishment certainly looks – and sounds – appealing. Looking forward to hearing what you think. Have a great week!

I signed up for paperback swap a while ago too but haven't actually used it because, well, I'm not caught up reading the ones I already own! (Must. Read. Faster!)

Wow! Great list as usual 🙂 I don't that I would have picked up The World's Strangest Librarian on my own, but you gave it such a great review that I'm going to put it on my TBR list. Also I think The Gods of Heavenly Punishment sounds like a great read!

You always read such interesting books, and make my TBR list longer…and longer…and longer. I added World's Strongest Librarian, sounds like an inspiration.

I listed 10 books and zoom! Before I knew it 8 of them were requested, lol. It's a good way to cull the shelves, that's for sure. Now, if I could only find a good use for the ARCs that are piling up around here. I send some out to other bloggers if they express an interest but they are accumulating faster than I can give them away!

I love Paperbackswap! It is mostly how I've built my classroom library. I've used it so much that when my book packages' online postage falls shy, my mail lady will pay it and leave me a note for reimbursement!I am thinking of upping my Goodreads as well. I just fell short last year because I finished the year with Les Mis. However, I'm almost at 50% for this year and am planning on having a great summer in books!

I love PaperBackSwap. I use it for my wish list books that come as they may so I can try to squeeze them in between my review books. I doubt I will ever read them all :)Have a great week!

I need to start finding books that I want to order on Paperbackswap instead of just sending them out, lol. Then again, the last thing I need is more books 😉 But I do want to use those credits!Les Mis is a chunkster! I'm planning on reading that this year.

It's the way to go! I'm loving this willy nilly approach 😉 I do have review books that I have to get done on time but that's not really a worry. It was all the challenges and pressure I put on myself last year that did me in. I don't want blogging to change the way I read darn it 🙂
