An accomplishment

When Ashley and I went on our honeymoon, I took The Magician’s Nephew (book 1 of 7 in the Chronicles of Narnia series) with me. I just finished The Last Battle (7 of 7) last night. The shortest book in the series, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe comes in at just over 200 pages, while the longest book, The Silver Chair, is just over 260. At an average of about 225 pages per book, that’s just shy of 1,600 pages.

In that same period, I also listened to Atlas Shrugged on audiobook. While the book is just over 1,150 pages, since I listened to it it would be more accurate to say how long the book is in time: 52 hours, 22 minutes.

Regardless, to hammer through that much material over the summer seems pretty impressive, and I’m proud of myself.

I’ve made a list of books I’m hoping to read in the next year or so… hopefully. Though, I think the only realistic way to do so is to get most of the fiction on audiobook. I’ll show the list in the following blog post.
