Let’s Talk Bookish – Something Different This Week – Flashback to July 1 LTB

Let’s Talk Bookish is a Friday post, created by Rukky @ Eternity Books and hosted by Aria @ Book Nook Bits, where we discuss a prompt about Bookish topics.

Since this week’s topic is a duplicate for me (Friday Favorites was Books that I’m Grateful For), I’ve decided to do a flashback topic from July 1st. I wasn’t blogging then, so this is new for me. This week’s flashback topic was chosen by Amber @ Escape Life in the Pages.

How are you doing on your reading goals so far this year?

I’ve done some excellent work on my reading goals, but probably not how you think!

Did you set any reading goals for yourself at the beginning of the year?

Yes! I set lots of goals. Series I was going to start/complete, a long TBR of books I own that haven’t read yet, books that I have on pause, and a large quantity goal.

If so, how are you doing with them?

More honesty here… I abandoned nearly all my goals. I felt too constricted and uninterested in some of them, so I ditched those goals and just started reading. My new goal became: Enjoy yourself.

Any you’ve already met?

I reached my quantity goal this week (on 11/24) of reading 80 books this year! And I’ve very much enjoyed my reading adventure!

Are there any goals you want to add?

Yes, I would like to read both of Ali Hazelwood’s novels The Love Hypothesis and Love on the Brain before the end of the year. I would also like to do The Reindeer Readathon 2022 and Alexandra Roslyn’s Holiday Readathon (it hasn’t been announced yet).
