That is quite a challenge. Good luck to you!

Yes, I am a little afraid. Some categories will be welcome additions to the repertoire. Others are alarming. I'll start by filling in what I've already read, then revise according to my interests and aspirations while sticking to the spirit of the thing. The categories are rather Euro and N America centric.

welcome, good to see you over here too! dont forget to check out the collective comments and recommendations on the group wiki that several folks put together (not me). its a cool resource.

Hi Katherine...and welcome to the DD Challenge! Check this link for recommended reads by others in this group. Have fun!

Filled in 000. Although I have 97 books in this category, 89 of them are 00, and only 4 of these can I swear I've read cover to cover, 3 of them murky years ago. The others are reference, dipped into, partially read, possibly read but I'll have to check, etc.

Filled in 100 sort of. Vague memories of some books, maybe read, maybe not, listed only if certain. Sure I've read others but they don't give me different numbers as listed in my catalog, should check more carefully because the numbers are somewhat fluid and I may be able to fill in more. Have not revised the category descriptions for differences between Wikipedia DD (the origin of my list) and LT MD systems.

Filled in 200 partially. Most books in this category I would've read 10+ years ago, and I'm disinclined to pull them off the shelves to check, so for the first round I've included only the ones I'm absolutely certain about.

The initial filling in of categories was pretty fun (and time consuming). I look forward to seeing what else you've already read. Good luck with the challenge!

I wish I could remember what I've already read completely, cover to cover, rather than merely sampled. My actual physical library includes books from the mid 1980s onward, during which time I've gone through many phases of interest, so if I didn't read them in the past, I'm not sure I can bring myself to read them now.

Good to see you filling your list out a bit. I think I kept remembering things I had forgotten about for almost a year after starting.

Filled in some 900s. Others suffer from poor memory or too many choices.

So after, um, a year an a half away, I've changed the strategy. I'd gotten hung up on trying to remember what I read years ago, and then choosing only one for each category. Now I've zapped the old books, and added only books from 2011 and 2012. I used the primary # if it made sense, otherwise used another; some still seem oddly or inconsistently categorized, but I'll deal with this later, maybe. Some books that I read in 2011 and 2012 don't have #s, so another task for later.
