Da var siste bok lest i forbindelse med å fullføre denne lista. Jeg er kjempefornøyd! Da jeg begynte å følge disse utfordringene, tror det var i 2017, hadde jeg lest lite i mange år pga sykdom. Det betød at jeg måtte bruke flere bøker på flere punkter for å få det til. Det året leste jeg ca 28-30 bøker for å fylle de 50 punktene - og det ble lest totalt 42 bøker. I år er jeg oppe i 50 bøker på 52 punkt - og det har så langt blitt lest 79 bøker i 2024. Ikke det at det er noe mål i seg selv å lese flest mulig bøker, men det er en seier og en glede å igjen kunne nyte leselysten!
