One of my goals this year was to read 12 books. The year before I may have read around 6 books.
I was really nervous setting this goal because I haven't really sat and read in years. Owning kindles boosted my reading over the past few years but nothing like I did this year. A friend of mine was challenging herself to a book challenge and I knew there was no way I could read as many as she could and she suggested a book a month for me. I took her up on the challenge.
When setting this goal, I knew I would be reading my normal cops, mysteries and paranormal type books. I also wanted to read something I typically wouldn't read. I read one christian book (not in your face religion but more spiritual) and also the trilogy 50 shades lol. Neither I was intending to read but they came into my life at the right moments. I did enjoy both, but couldn't wait to get back to my normal genre of books. Which I am once again reading. I'm just starting book #15.
I won't be really thinking about 2013 goals yet, but I will have to up my challenge with the books and maybe read something else a little different for myself. Or maybe finally finish one of those spiritual books I started (those seem to take me longer) I really love fiction and the wonderful worlds it can create.
