Missed my reading goal by two books this year. However, I noticed that compared to previous years, my “pages read” average was higher. So I’m pretty happy with that. Going to try to aim for 40 books in 2024 as well. Also, keep an eye out for my 24 books for 2024 list coming soon!
Did you reach your reading goals this year? Let me know what some of your favorite reads were xx
I did not read much in 2023, only 7 books but one of them was Little Fires Everywhere and I must say, I really enjoyed that book. Such an entertaining read. My reading goal for 2024 is 12 books so we will see how that goes. Congrats on reading 38 in 2023.
