52 Books In One Year


Last year I challenged myself to read 50 books in one year. I managed 48 and was sorely disappointed in myself for the failure. To some 4 may seem like a good number, but it was frustrating to fall short by so few - and also to know I could have done 50 if I had just made more of an effort. So, to make up for my failed efforts, this year I will again challenge myself to 50 and add the extra 2 from last year to even everything out and make it a nice round 52! Also, it suits my sightly obsessive need for things to be symmetrical, or seem to fit together as there are 52 weeks in a year! You can keep track on the left and if you are interested in the books there are links to the amazon pages for them all. As you can see I started this year with a non-salubrious choice!
