Years ago I would set a reading goal for each month (or was it a year?) and post my stack of books. I did much better at getting through those stacks then I have been the past few years!! I think I used to have more time to read when kids took naps HA! I was looking back through some of my old "books" posts and see some of the same books on my list this time so I must not have read through as many as I thought though! Anyway, I digress. In November, I cleaned off my little bookcase and organized my books in order of how to read them. Here are my stacks:
This is stack #1 - top down is how I'm reading. The goal is two books a month from my stack so I can get through the whole stack (#2 photo below included) by the end of the year.
This is stack #2. These stacks of books are only non-fiction books. Books for better living, raising kids, building relastionships and more.
These are additional books I added to my "list" after Christmas because, well, I got them as gifts! Two are cookbooks and yes, I like to "read" them. I have goals to use them both throughout the year and try many new recipes.
Another book to add to the "stack". Yes, I like Ree Drummond (Pioneer Woman) so I pre-ordered her new book a few months ago and it arrived in November. I want to make sure and take time to read this treasure as well.
Finally, one last book "added" to the stack. I just ordered this one - it's been on my list for a year to order (my word last year was "Peace")
I have plenty of reading to do this year because I also have a stack of fiction books to read too! I love using my Kindle (and might even upgrade it this year!) but I also love holding a good book too.
I have created a BOARD on Pinterest to track the books I read this year. It is currently empty as I have not finished any yet! I hope to update it soon though!
