I am very pleased to say that I was able to successfully complete Goodreads 2021 Reading Challenge! My goal was 30 books and I finished the last book today. Above are the last two books I read as part of that challenge and they just happen to also be part of my research/author development for my novel. I have challenged myself to annual reading goals every year since 2012. I haven’t always met my goal and some years I was definitely overzealous with regard to how many books I thought I could read but no matter how many books I finish the year with I am always grateful to have nurtured my love of reading. How many books have you read this year?
P.S. I do not count children’s books, articles or even my textbook for university towards my Reading Challenge Goal. That would be too easy š
