HONOR COUNTS I STLL NEED

Just to keep a score in my mind for next year. I read over a hundred in 2023.

1930's: 11 1980's: 13
1940's: 24 1990's: 17
1950's: 25 2000's: 11
1960's: 14 2010's: 10
1970's: 15 2020's: 6

REMAINING TOTAL: 146

If I read as many as read in 2023, I should be able to finish in the first half of 2025.

>1 EGBERTINA: nice job!

>2 fuzzi: Thank you. I really thought I'd be done; I keep reading everything but Newberys

>7 EGBERTINA: if I still had Afternoon of the Elves I would send it to you.

>9 fuzzi: Thank you for the thought. I'm sure I will find it somewhere.

My plan is to demolish all but the harder to find honors; then i can poke around in a leisurely fashion finishing the remainder; which will free me up for other reading projects. I wonder if all that attempt this goal get antsy when they can finally "see" the finish line.

Good job!

>12 EGBERTINA: I've only read two of these Newbery's so far.

>15 fuzzi: Thank you so much. I've hit my slowing-down-point, again. (sad emoji) if i could keep up with the 50 a month, I'd be done in two months. I am progressing, slowly - and this ticker - helps encourage me. This afternoon, I cooked a meal, instead. So often, I am cooking for clients, that I rarely, cook at home anymore. I hope that i can at least do 20 again, this month, but I'm doubting it.

Which two have you read?

>16 EGBERTINA: from your list on post 12 I've read Homesick and Afternoon of the Elves.
