    No not everyone. Not even most people. For me, it helps give a general overview in what I want to read. Not to mention, it's not absolute. I'll probably have changed it around hundred different times by the end of the year. Plus, I don't have the greatest memory so it helps keep track of shit.

    Read it all at once, and close off your mind while you do.

    The more you think, the worse it is.

    I Shall Seal the Heaven - it will likely be finished next year.
    The Nine Cauldrons - has the possibility to be finished next year.
    Douluo Dalu - if it gets finished next year
    Child of Light
    Martial World - I don't think it'll be complete by next year, but I'll start it either way
    Unfortunately, not many of those I want to read will be completely translated by next year and some would likely need at least a few years at their current pace so I'm not really inclined to start them.

    My list? It's called "Not Started" it's the evil part of my reading list that I'm afraid to look at because I think I'll spend too much time of my life on NU if I look at it.
