Last week we announced a little catch up competition between Psycho and I. In January we both set a goal of reading 24 books for the year. Unfortunately we’ve fallen incredibly behind on our reading. In an effort to motivate ourselves we turned it into a competition and are now rushing to finish our 24 books before the end of this year.

With all three of our Xboxes being out of commission (more on that later) reading is now at the top of our list of things to do.

This week I went from 6 books to 9 and read:

• The Day I Shot Cupid by Jennifer Love Hewitt
• The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
• Forbidden Mind by Kimberly Kinrade

PsychoVandal went from 2 books to 4 by remembering to add books he read earlier this year to his list. He added:

• Gears of War: Jacinto’s Remnant by Karen Traviss
• The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Standard Edition by J.K. Rowling

And there you have it, our weekly 2011 Reading Challenge Recap. I’m in the lead by 6 books! If you don’t know what I’m talking about or would like to refresh your memory about what’s at stake, you can do so here.

Be sure to come back next week to see how much closer I am to winning. Muahahahaha!
