My goal for 2015 was to read 52 books - which amounts to one a week. Someone posted the challenge somewhere, and I picked up the gauntlet!! I hit 52 books a few weeks back, and thought I might as well go to 60 - which amounts to 5 books a month!! (Somehow that sounds like more!) Also, I sort of need to be reading a book all the time - how else do you pass time in waiting rooms, doctor's offices, and post office lines?
This last one was a random suggestion from Phoebe - I was texting her about some titles she had thrown out to me when we were up there visiting and she threw out a few more! But I dare not start a book at this point in the holiday season - even mediocre books have a tendency to get me wrapped up in them and I read - and do not much else!
So this one - about which Phoebe said, "I enjoyed this one - but then I think I had low expectations!" was an entertaining read - mostly. It did bog down with some "preaching" about dreams and expectations - but I am able to skim that kind of stuff. It started out better than it wrapped up - often a problem with current fiction.
But it's good airplane fiction!
What will be my challenge for 2017? 104 books? 120 books?
I think I should commit to trying to just read library books!!
