Rachel has slowed down a little, having read 143 books in 149 days through May 29th. This is mainly due to a problematic tooth that was driving her crazy. But after an emergency dentist visit, Rachel is back to her prolific reading ways. She finished four books on Saturday.
So don't tune out Rachel fans. She's will have 365 by the end of the year.

Can't find a bookmark
Update on what Rachel's reading coming soon, but until then, he are some fun tidbits:
- When you're actively reading 10 books at one time, it gets hard to find a bookmark.
- Rachel is currently reading 'Creativity: Flow and the Psychology of Discovery and Invention' by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (and yes I had to copy and past that name to ensure I got it right). It is one of her favorites, but it has slowed her down. Of course it has. Even the author's name took me 5 minutes to read.
- Rachel is often asked if she's getting sick of reading. The answer is no. She's as excited as the first day, and loving her journey.
More coming soon.
