So far this year, I have read 36 novels. I am more than glad, it seems that I will make it up to forty by the end of the year. Actually, That was the goal I silently set myself in the beginning but I was somewhat sceptical about making it public. Anyway, now it feels good to see that it could be possible.
What about you? How many books have you read so far this year? Do you have any ongoing reading challenge?
Finally, Thank you for supporting me.

Great reading Mary. I'm so jealous. I've managed to read 16 books so far this year. My initial challenge was to read 30, but I've revised that to 20. Hopefully I can meet that target.
ReplyDeleteSeems like you had a great summer, and those are lovely photos. Well done!
Hello Tolulope,
DeleteNo worries, what really matters is that you are reading. 16 is quite a lot. And I am so sure you can meet your target of 20 books.
Thanks for the compliments.
