I think we broke the old record with the book https://librivox.org/what-shall-we-do-by-leo-tolstoy/ which perhaps could be actually asking us "What Shall We Do Next?"
Thanks, Todd
Great job, everyone! We are already up to 160 ~ let's see how high we can get it to in the next 3 days!

This has been such a neat project. I didn't realize there were some books that had been started years ago and still being worked on!

Sometimes things do not go as well as hoped. I believe we had one that took 8 years (shudder). Consider yourself lucky not to have run into one of these long-haul projects!

"The Count of Monte Christo" (DR) is coming up to its sixth anniversary while "Wives and Daughters"(DR) has been going for longer than that.
I have read for both of them (I think, but my memory isn't what it was)

I was just getting my feet wet when I took a part in Wives and Daughters" which started on October 2nd, 2014, (before I joined LV) which is coming up on 7 1/2 years. Of course we lost Beth as MC along the way.
And the Count of Monte Christo started on April 21st, 2015. Another long, complicated project with lots of parts.
I wonder if we need a new category for these types of projects, or some way to make them more visible to new readers because they tend to sink to the bottom and get lost.
Maybe we should have a DR and Play clean-up month, or something.

And we are now at 161 items cataloged so far this month. New record for monthly completions. Woo Hoo!
That 3 hour Librivox shutdown time in early April is looking quite enticing. Don't slack off now, but start making your plans. Mine include, after reintroducing myself to the family, a beach chair in the back yard, warm sun if it doesn't rain, ignore the forum for a spell (while it gets updated), lose my phone somewhere so I'm not checking to see when the forum comes back alive, and just plain vege out for a good nap....
(I am ignoring the calls above for a continuation of cleanup month....)
Thanks, Todd
