..."omg that's a thorough plan! Yup!
Mine was more scribbling some ideas on a piece of paper and sticking it to the wall, I gotta up my game! I'm trying to make a shelf for all my owned and unread books so it's easier to organise buddy reads but man I have so many

My goal is 84 books this month. I'm not sure which books but I know it's 84. lol
Olivia wrote: "Jammin Jenny wrote: "Olivia wrote: "Jammin Jenny wrote: "@Olivia, I'll BR with you. And if you can wait until later in the month, I'll re-read..."Yes that's perfect!
Connie wrote: "omg...I was aiming for 20 hahaha"My goal is 1,000 books this year. That's 83.3333 per month. Some of my Kindle Unlimited books are only like 100+ pages and I just switched departments at work and can listen to audio books for 8 hours uninterrupted. yay
I had planned on going full force into the new year but today I lost my 17 year old cat. I know the days will probably be filled with a lot of crying and staring into space. I will do my very best though, for the team as I do want to read, read, read. Planned so far.
Sorry for your loss Krystal. I lost a 21 yo cat before and it was heart-wrenching.

Jammin Jenny wrote: "Sorry for your loss Krystal. I lost a 21 yo cat before and it was heart-wrenching."Thank you so much, it definitely is. The thought of something so precious being there for so long and then, poof- gone, is just too much.

Some of them are shorter and there will be a lot of audio.

I'm so sorry for your loss :( Take your time!

I'm so sorry for your loss, Krystal. I know how you feel. My cat is also 17 and every day he's around, is a gift. Big hug!
@Danique, yes we can BR
. Does Jan 25 work for you?

Checking in :)Krystal, that's so painful...I'm so sorry for your loss! We lost our dog a few years ago who was one of 3. We still talk about him all the time. He was family so I get it!
I will definitely be joining some of the buddy reads.
Ashley, 84 books? Holy moly! I WAS feeling good about my book a day plan. lol Actually, I can't read 84 so I can't compare myself to you or anyone. But that's amazing! Sometimes when I am reading super fast, I don't enjoy my books as much. Some books I don't care if I'm reading them really fast but others I want to soak them in, think on the vocabulary, the way it's written, some special phrases, and if there is philosophical ideas I LOVE digging into that. Good luck organizing!

I think everyone has different reading habits and that's okay! It's about what life allows you to do and obviously most people have other hobbies, which is totally awesome.
Personally, I don't read fast, just a lot. I listen to audio books a lot too. At work, while I'm driving, cleaning at home. Basically when I'm awake and not actually reading a book.
I absolutely love digging into books too! I understand. I was a Literature major in college and still have the habit of searching for symbolism and analyzing character development and tone, etc. I think it's just become habit at this point.
I think a book a day is great and you're totally gonna crush it!
