Firstly, I’d like to start by welcoming you all into 2016! I hope the year brings you new and exciting things, and most of all, that you’re healthy and happy!

This is just a little update on my 2015 reading challenge progress.

When I started, I had every intention of reading 100 books because in 2014 I read 80 ish and thought ‘100 is definitely achievable’, so the challenge was set. Well, we’ve just finished 2015 and I managed 80 books. Not bad right?

I’m actually quite pleased with how many I read because I honestly didn’t think I would have finished that many! In March last year, I started a new job and although I love it and wouldn’t change it for the world, the travelling and work hours take it out of you. Most of the time I get home from work and jump on the sofa and sleep, energy isn’t a positive factor of me, unfortunately – I lack it on a weekday. It pains me to say it but the last thing I want to do is read, I don’t have the concentration. However, it is getting better and in 2016 I hope to pick myself up and read a lot more! Let’s do this!

Now that we are in 2016 I intend to read 100 books for the Goodreads reading challenge!

How many books do you intend to read this year?

    Happy New Year! Last year my goodreads goal was 100 and I read 89 books, so this year I’ve set my goodreads goal to 10 just to see if I end up reading more. I have a feeling the absence of a target might be better for me, we’ll see! ๐Ÿ™‚

      That’s a good idea! You’ll definitely read more than 10 I’m sure.

    Happy New Year!! I plan to read at least 60 but this year I read over a hundred so I’ll probably be reading about the same!
