January 13, 2014.
I have been reading some other blogs and recently read someone's challenge for the year 2013. Their challenge was to read 50 books over the course of the year That had me thinking, What a great challenge. Then I started wondering about myself, how many books did read last year?
I have no idea! How many will I read this year? I never thought about the actual number of books I've read or am capable of reading. So, I'm going to, do my best to, track how many books I finish during 2014. Sounds like a challeng to better myself.
You might be asking, why does it matter? In the greater scheme of things I guess it doesn't, does it? I'm thinking, not really, other than now I'm curious. I tell people I read a lot, but how do I quantify that?
I read as often as I can, which isn't nearly enough as far as I'm concerned. I recently decided that I need to read different genres and 'feel' how other authors hook you into caring about the characters and their journey. I've turned to listening to audio books as well, I can't read while I drive, but I can listen! I loved that I can "read" at leaast two books at once. I wonder how many books I will finish while doing my; be a mom, housewife, writer, crafter, sister, daughter, friend and everything in between to keep things moving forward.
