101 in 1001

Things have been done and such!


Completed:

None!


In Progress:

Another update and comment. (1 - 3) ( 7 - 4). I also finished Rabbit, Run so that's another book off the TIME Top 100 list. (3 - 3). I also finished another Trek episode and donated to LoveHopeStrength. (5 - 12) (12 - 3).  I donated a bit over 3000 more grains of rice at FreeRice. (12 - 7)

Right now I'm reading Beloved, which is turning out to be much better than Rabbit, Run. Not quite as good as A Confederacy of Dunces, which apparently isn't on the official TIME list. That's another one I'm just going to quietly edit in there; but what book to take out?



Failed:

None!
