I often make book lists for the year, and seldom follow through with actually reading what’s on my list. This year, I am going to try really hard to meet my goals. With a baby coming in April, I wanted to be reasonable. Before the baby is due, I am likely going to be continuing to spend a lot of my time in bed due to a difficult pregnancy. As such, I’ve made a goal of reading two books a month January through March. After that, I will only try to read one book a month, making the total of 15 books for the year.
