Sounds like you have set your goal. Good luck and happy reading!
Welcome to the group, Anthony! It is indeed a great group that helps and encourages everyone :) Will you be joining any of the challenges? I definitely recommend the buddy reads and group reads to motivate you when those dreaded reading slumps hit! I look forward to seeing what you'll be reading throughout the year. Best of luck! :)
good luck,Tony! 22 is a great number you should be proud! I hope 2018 is amazing for you. I agree with Kristin if you need motivation or suggestions we are all friendly and helpful here
Finished the following so far in January;Black House
The Zookeeper's Wife - Audio
Currently in progress;
Phasma
Nineteen Eighty-Four - Audio
Alexander Hamilton - Audio
Just wrapped up Wellbeing: The Five Essential Elements, which was assigned for work. I also just finished Nineteen Eighty-Four on audio.
Awesome job so far Anthony! Do you prefer to listen to books?
Thank you Blagica. I do not prefer it, but I have a 45 minutes to an hour commute to work each day. That gives me close to 2 hours a day I can listen to audio books. It allows to get more books completed. I try to listen to books that I didn't have on my TBR list to mix things up.
Updated with the final two books from January, Phasma in physical copy and Bobby Kennedy: A Raging Spirit on audio.Also added the first completed book for February, All the Light We Cannot See on audio.
You are doing great! Hoping March is a great month for you.
I was not able to sneak in as many in February as I did for January, but I did wrap up the month with two more books. Hoping for a big March.
*crosses my fingers for you*
A book is a dream that you hold in your hand. I hope that April brings you many more five star reads.
“Reading brings us unknown friends” While the warm weather is coming I hope you make some new friends in May! You are doing great keep it up!
Updated the month of April and the DNF section.
“I have always imagined paradise will be a kind of library.” I hope you find a corner in Paradise with some great books!!
Awesome Job Anthony keep it up!
You are on your way to having a great year in books! Do you have a book you still can't wait to read?
Updated for November.Blagica, I still really want to finish Empire's End by Chuck Wendig and Acceptance by Jeff Vadermeer before the end of the year.
