Do you set goals like reading a certain number of books in a year? Participate in reading challenges?
I don’t set goals around reading a certain number of books. Those have always seemed arbitrary and not helpful for my reading. I have done reading challenges in the past, though—the yearly Book Riot Read Harder Challenge, the yearly reading challenge from PopSugar, book bingo. I like those types of challenges for helping me to break out of my comfort zone and try new authors and genres! I’ve also made my own challenges. What are some of your favorite reading challenges?
This is my first year genuinely participating in a book challenge of any kind, though it isn’t much of a challenge. My goal is 12 books by the end of the year, with the idea being to complete one book a month. It’s just a way to motivate and ease myself back into reading without creating unnecessary pressure
Nice! You’ve got this!
