CRL Update Again

Man, it's been a while since I've had an update for my list. In short, in a matter of a few days, I had finished reading Dead Space:Martyr. This book is the 36th book crossed off in my CRL or Comprehensive Reading List. It is a list that I have started years ago, but wasn't until the beginning of last year that I have been quite serious in accomplishing the feat of reading all of the books on that list. For the most part, they are books that I own and if I don't own them, I plan on buying them over the course of time.  After my frustrating rut in March, I have been working (or rather reading) relentlessly trying to catch up on my reading. For this year, the goal is to read at least 75% of the books on my list - this makes it a total of 51 books this year. Since I'm only at 36, this means I have 15 more books to go. It's a little frustrating know that I'm only at approximately at 53.7% (36/67), especially since were halfway in to May now. If I could have avoided the rut, I may very well be ahead than where I'm at right now, perhaps another 5 books or so (that is, if I pace myself properly). On a somewhat related note, this book, Martyr, is the first E-Book that I've bought for my Kindle Fire HD. It's still a surreal knowing that I'm slowing heading more towards the digital side of my collections. I'll still collect physical copies of books, movies, games, and the like, but now, a more digital collection will begin to be more prominent in my life from now on.
