I may have already talked about how since the beginning of last year I started setting a book reading goal for myself. I love reading, but I wasn’t always setting aside the time for it so I decided that I would read 52 books a year. Basically a book a week with a little leeway for the unpredictabilities of life. Fast forward to today and reading before bed has become one of my favorite times of day. Sometimes I read for a good hour, sometimes no more than 5 minutes before my eyelids grow heavy, but every night without fail i pick up a book or my E reader and unwind in the pages of a story.
Originally I was just keeping track of my books in my planner. On the opposite side of my January calendar where there is space for notes I started my list. It wasn’t at all an exciting way to keep my list, but I didn’t think anything of it. And then Goodreads walked into my life. Have I been living under a rock?! The app is not only a wonderful way to share your reviews on books and get recommendations for your next read, but it also has a goal tracker to keep track of the books you read. Holy game changer! I’m hooked!

Although, I confess I haven’t learned much more than that. So far I’ve stuck to adding the books I’ve read this year and updated my progress on my current read, but my knowledge hasn’t gone much further than that. I can already tell this is the start of something beautiful though. If you want to follow me or share any tips just leave them below or find me over on Goodreads!
