Welcome to 2024 and a brand new year of reading!
I’m still not sure I believe it, but somehow I managed to hit my extended lofty reading goal for 2023. It started at 250 books and then I decided why not try for 365.
I ended the year having “read” 366 books! This includes audiobooks, which is where 25% of my reading came from (most of it at the end of the year while taking care of a tiny human).
I read 33 books in December and a total of 9,796 pages.
Top 5 Reads included:
✨ On Earth We Are Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong
✨ Taste by Stanley Tucci
✨ Create Anyway by Ashlee Gadd
✨ Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood
✨ Boundaries by Henry Cloud
It’s always fun to start fresh and I’m excited for this next year of more relaxed reading. I’m not 100% sure how it will all play out but just so I can look back and see how I did, here are some goals I’m aiming for …
✨ Read 100 books from my TBR (currently at over 500 books unread)
✨ Read a book a day with the tiny human (aka 365)
✨ Track how much I save my borrowing books
✨ Make a dent in my Kindle books (roughly around 75 books)
✨ If I buy a book in 2024, it needs to be read in 2024
✨ Publish my next novel (and start working on the next one)
