READING CHALLENGES/ BOOKS READ FOR 2016
My overall goal is to read 350 books in 2016. I will keep a running total here as well as on Goodreads.(In 2015, I listed the books on Goodreads but did not keep up here. I resolve to do better! But I surpassed my goal of 350 books in 2015 – by 8))
Here are the challenges I am joining for 2016
- Modern Mrs. Darcy Reading Challenge
Hosted by Modern Mrs Darcy
12 categories, 12 books
2. PopSugar’s 2016 Ultimate Reading Challenge
This is a new one for me. I hope to read all 40 books from a diverse list of categories.
Check here for the categories.
3. Mount TBR Reading Challenge
I have attempted this the past few years but my TBR pile never seems to decrease! If I stopped buying books it would help I am sure.
My goal is to read at least 2 TBR books a month so I plan to climb Mt. Blanc!

4. 2016 I Love Picture Books Reading Challenge
My goal is to read 100 picture books next year (including non-fiction picture books as well.)

Whoaaa 350 books!! Good luck! I’m also doing the diversity on the shelf challenge 🙂
Thanks! A number of those were picture books though. Also I am retired so have a bit more time on my hands. But it was a good year for reading for sure. Lots of variety.
