Today I am two books behind in my reading challenge of 60 books in 2019. I do count audio books as I like to listen to books while doing dishes and quilting and to help me get to sleep. Maybe half of my books are audio (need to check that out). I have 7 on currently reading list, but ones like Astrophysics for People in a Hurry is a slow read for me. I can get through a cozy mystery in a day or two. Will update reading section relating to the “Challenge” this year.
I too am in the midst of completing my goodreading challenge of 2019. I usually read 4+ books a month, but I just had a baby so that has changed quite a bit! I’m going to start reading the Harry Potter series since I haven’t and it’s a HUGE reading goal of mine for 2019. I refuse to watch the movies first and my hubby absolutely hates that! I also have yet to try audiobooks, I feel like I like the feeling of a physical book in my hand but I’ve never really gave it a try. Might be useful while I’m doing things like cleaning, I’m just scared I wouldn’t be able to focus on it!

Lien, I finally found out how to reply to a post! While looking for the ability to do this I saw a widget called Goodreads; haven’t experimented with it, but might.
My experience with babies is that you give up a lot for them, but so worth it. Our children and friends are our own stories we get to experience every day.

I should probably start a list of all of the books I plan on reading, right now I’m mostly just going through series that I’ve heard of and never got into or ones where I saw and the movie and want to check out the book.
Ever since I recently started listening to audiobooks I have been devouring everything I can get a hold of. I’ve started the Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, and Lord of the Rings series on audiobook and just recently finished the Divergent series. Whenever I have time to read (for pleasure as opposed to schoolwork) I get a snippet of the Inheritance Cycle, and I’ve started collecting R. A. Salvatore’s books so that I can read my way through The Forgotten Realms.

Audiobooks have changed my life. I’ve “read” so much in the last few years, just while running or on my commute to CCC.
