Not planning on finishing all of them :)

To finish 2022 goals:

- read 6 other books...
- Read 5 more paper books (probably will skip this one)

Hope you enjoy the Christina Lauren book, one of my early favorites. I’ve also got the Beth O’Leary book coming up soon.

Enjoy your reading, Lieke!

Getting covid didn't help with my goals since I didn't read for at least a week, let's see if I will make my goals in this festive month.
Also one book from the library isn't working right and I don't have a spare audiobook that has a title starting with Q.

Hope you are feeling better, Lieke! The fatigue from Covid makes it difficult to read.

Hope you enjoy your books!

Your A to Z narrator challenge looks interesting. Do you have to find narrators with last names from A to Z? That must be a tough challenge.

Enjoy your reading!

@Jonetta: Thank you, I'm afraid the Beth O'Leary book will have to wait until next year, but that will be here soon enough :)

@Lauren: Thank you, fortunately it was just a bad cold for me and I'm feeling much better. But I ussually listen during my commute and I didn't have one when I was sick. Thank you!

@Sharon: yes that is the challenge, some are very hard. But it is fun, the challenge is from the Romance audiobooks group. Thanks!

Enjoy your December books, Lieke!

[Lieke]

Thank you Robin!

I finally bought myself a laptop and since my reading of paper books isn't going very well, I have been "reading" the same books for months. I put a few shorter books on my ereader. I already finished one of them :)
Only need two more books to finish my audio A-Z Title challenge but my Y book is 14 hours and my Q book isn't working so not sure I will make it. But at least I'm close.

I've found that I read more quickly with my iPad than with a paperback as well.
Enjoy your new computer!

Thank you Lauren! Haven't read a lot on my e-reader yet so will see how this continues :)
