I'm really not one for resolutions. I just don't really see much point in promising to start something later that I could start right now, because I'm more likely to continue doing it then! And a challenge is something completely different. With our return to Canada happening this year (which means LIBRARIES!!) I figured this was as good of a challenge as any for me to tackle.
The rules:
1. There aren't any.
I read A LOT of books. I mean, you're hard-pressed to catch me without a book in my near vicinity. But I also have a tendency to read a lot of the same things, so I'm hoping this puts some new reads in my path! If you have one you'd like to recommend, by all means let me know! I do love my kindle (and no, I by no means think they will be the end of libraries and hard-copies), but I miss the feel and the smell and just everything about paper and ink books. I brought exactly two with me to Taiwan. Both have been read, and one has already been given away because I know she'll like it. I've been able to acquire a few more from various friends, either as a loan or for keeps, but there's nothing like spending a good hour browsing bookshelves to find your next adventure.
So, without further ado, the 2015 Reading Challenge via Popsugar!
