I love to read. If I had my choice to do anything on my day off - its most likely curling up with my nook devouring some new read. I get so entranced over characters, stories, plot twists, and really placing myself into a book. Ahh LOVE!
Over the last few years I have been participating in a book challenge. You set a yearly goal and post all the books you read along with a description or review. I have so enjoyed participating in this new yearly tradition because I notice I have been stepping out of my comfort zone to experience new genre's of literature. Prior to 2009 - I would pick up a book on occasion when I could fit in the time - and it would take me forever to finish one because life just got in the way. More and more Im turning to my nook instead of the computer or the TV because I have missed out on reading during those "crazy early 20" years.
So while I will keep with my yearly postings so I can keep track of what I am reading each year - I have decided to post all of those books into this blog and keep this as my life long challenge to read more and more.
I have a few goals this year - 1st to actually make my yearly goal. The last 2 years I have participated I did not reach my lofty goal of 100 books each, so this year I set a more reasonable goal of 52. One book per week. I was thinking "no problem". Already this year I am falling behind.
My longterm goal over the next three years is to read all of the books on the list of 100 Books You Must Read Before You Die.
