My Reading Challenge

In 2011 I decided it was time to start reading again. Not that I hadn't been reading, I just hadn't been taking the time to have "me" time which would allow for finding a good book to sink into.  My goal back then was 12 novels.  I read, or at least logged 44 books that I read during 2011.

This year, my goal was to read even more.  I know I read several books between January and March of this year, but in March I purchased a Kindle Fire and the reading took off.  Between March and yesterday, I read 55 books!!  I can't believe it.  What's even better is I didn't pay for any of those books.  I found 2 great links to follow that offer FREE kindle books on a daily basis. One is ereadernewstoday.com and the other is inspiredreads.com. I also found various pages to like on Facebook that also offer FREE books!  In fact at this point I have over 400 books on my amazon kindle list and I've only paid for 5 of them! 

With the goal of reading more than I did this past year, I also have the goal of writing up book reviews of what I have read.  Hopefully, 2013 will allow me to find the time needed to write a quick review after I finish a book.  To get started I've created a list of the books I read in 2012.

Happy Reading!!
