Okay, so I was super ambitious with my Goodreads reading challenge this year. This year, I committed to reading 75 books. Will I be able to make this goal? I hope so.
I am so close to completing my reading goal. I only have 12 more books to read and then I will hit my challenge of 75 books. I figured I was able to read 75 books last year so why wouldn’t I be able to replicate that this year? Of course, I did get Covid last year and was stuck inside my apartment for a month with nothing to do but read so….
But I think I can do it. Here’s my plan:
- Turn off social media on my phone.
- Wake up early to work out so I don’t have to work out in the evening and can read instead.
- I’m going to be traveling for the holidays so I’m going to be doing a lot of reading at the airport and I always get through at least one book on the airplane ride.
- Just read!
I have some great holiday books to read (see my December tbr list here) and I just checked out Britney Spears’ memoir from the library. I’m really excited to dive into some great books this month!


Yay!! Fingers crossed you get through all 12. I believe in you! Turning off your phone feel scary but sometimes I leave it in another room so I won’t get distracted. I also put on light cafe jazz to turn my apartment into a coffee shop so I’ll concentrate. Haha.
Good lucky, my friend!
