Number goals aren’t ever good for me, but intentions and “reading projects” are!

Excited for next week — you know I love those topics ☺️

Ooh, I do like a project. That's a great way to frame it.

I used to set number goals but didn’t do it last year and may skip it again this year. But I do track what I read on StoryGraph.

I want to read more physical books this year as I’ve mostly been doing audio recently so I’m trying to keep physical books I want to read in strategic places as a reminder :)

A little brain cue is a great help.

I track everything on Goodreads (going to transition to StoryGraph) and I've gotten much better over the years of being ok with not meeting my book goal for the year/lowering my goal.

Benefit of reading older books is hopefully fewer/shorter holds on Libby ;)

My goal this year is to find physical books that I can read in 5-minute spurts throughout the day while my son is playing. I've tentatively started one, and we'll see how my memory fares!

I moved to StoryGraph from Goodreads and like it alot. Yes, older books are certainly easier to come by. Love the 5 minute spurts, making the time you have work!
