Late Start, Kickstart to the Year

So it's a bit late in the year but here I am ready to kick it off right here, right now lol.

We're kicking it off with the GoodReads book challenge. A yearly challenge that GoodReads posts where you set a goal of how many books you want to read within the year.

This year I set the same goal that I did last year, 100 books. Last year I didn't reach that goal, no excuses, I just didn't do it. This year I seem to keep running one book behind. If I'm going to keep being behind then I'm going to do it because I'm writing about the books I love.

I know that everyone that reads this isn't a member of GoodReads so I'm wondering out there. Does anyone have a book goal or if you are a member of GoodReads did you set a goal up with them?

Goal or not though the important thing is to have fun and enjoy what you're reading. Without that joy the goal is meaningless.

Book Goals for 2016

As a member of good reads there's a place where you can make reading goals for the year. 

Last year I had a goal of 100 books which I exceeded. This year I've chosen to try for 120 books. 

As of right now I'm on book nine so I guess I have some writing to catch up on. 

Maybe I'll see some of you there if you're interested in joining 😊

Good Reads Goal for the Year

Good Reads remains ever so diligent this year. When we had gotten back from Maryland this year I found an email waiting from me asking me about my reading goal this year.

I have always strived for what seems at the time inconceivable so I decided to keep with that tradition lol. The goal I have set for myself this year is the same as it was last year and didn't reach.

By the end of this year my goal is to read 100 books. No re-reading any of the same books this year.

That's part of what makes the challenge hard. I love to re-read my books even though I have so many that I could easily read a book a day and never repeat the same one.

The book that I am on now I technically started in December but I knew that I wasn't going to be able to read much from the time I started it till after I got back from Maryland the first week in January.

I'll be back to post on what I have on that book so far in a few :)

Who else has a reading goal this year? Or even in a month? Short term goals are good as well.
