2018 Outdo Yourself Reading Challenge

Happy to continue hosting this challenge for the 3rd year in a row. It was handed over to me by The Book Vixen and I’m so glad to invite to join in again if you did before, and call for newbies to sign up for 2018 Outdo Yourself Reading Challenge.

I pledged to read a 100 books in 2017 and I’m happy to report I’m 35 books over that. I did mean to read more serious books, but with all the already serious stuff going on in my life for a large part the year, I needed to read books that didn’t make me think so much!

My favourite reads from the year:

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society
The Secret Wife
The Color of Water in July

In 2018, I’m aiming for 150 books and more reviews. 

How many books did you read in 2017? What’s your target for 2018? Come join us in challenging yourself to read more.
