Hi Book-Sniffers and Librocubicularists,What an odd end to this year. This seems a trend for my reading every year. Begin strong, peak in the summer months, and peter out into bare reading in November/December.
Now on holidays, I can start planning my potential reading for next year. I've been brainstorming some attack methods. Things that didn't work this year, things that did. My goals worked, the Popsugar 2015 Challenge was fantastic, and many MANY books were crossed off the reading list.
As the end of the year approaches I look at the stack of new books that I pushed aside because I had all of these other ones I wanted to read. This approach will change, though I'm not sure just yet how I will do it. I've been reading other people's blogs to see what they do, to be inspired potentially.
My bookclub with my best friend will continue. We've already got ten or so books lined up as priorities. Another bookclub invited me in. Thankfully, we're all understanding of our busy schedules, so the reading demand will be much less.
Right now, I'm hoping to end the year with one or two strong books - great characters, great story, and great fun. Three that I have in my queue are: Irenicon by Aidan Harte, Nod by Adrian Barnes, and Smiler's Fair by Rebecca Levene.
Between now and the first weekend of the New Year will be filled with resolutions and new lists. Very excited.
A very merry Christmas to you!
