New Years Resolution: Keeping Promises | Alan D�Souza

#2018readingresolutions #2018newyeargoals

1. Begin the day reading for 30 minutes.
2. Finish 25 books on my 2018 TBR list
3. Go to bed earlier (11pm) to wake up earlier (#1)
4. Stay accountable by regularly posting on Litsy
5. Choose my books wisely. Read what fuels my reading habit. Stop impulsive book buying on Amazon or other (unless I'm getting a great deal)

Captivatedbybooks, AnneCecilie

To read outside of my comfort zone. To pause more and reflect on my reading. To be always reading! #2018readingresolutions

New Years Resolution: Keeping Promises | Alan D�Souza

A little late to the party, but here goes:
1. Read 52 books
2. Reread Jane Austen's 6 novels
3. Read more of my own books
4. Following from number 3, I'm thinking of having book buying ban months

SilversReviews I honestly do not have any, but I know I will be reading. :) I plan to read 50 books. 6y

AnneCecilie @SilversReviews my yearly goal for reading is always 52 books, in 2017 I read 81, so that's not much of a goal. When it comes to the others, I've been thinking about it for years and failing, so I thought I should write them down. Maybe that will work better. 6y

SilversReviews @AnneCecilie I don‘t like to set it too high because then it is stressful, and my reading is my fun. :) 6y

New Year's Resolutions | New York Times

I have a bunch:

🔸Read 200 books
🔸Limit new book purchases
🔸Finish at least 5 of my challenges
🔸Read at least 25 more #1001books

I‘m planning ahead by filling my challenge prompts with books I already have and books that are available through the library and/or Playster. I‘ve cancelled my BOTM (😮) and will be canceling my Audible as soon as I use up my last credits.

Cinfhen I can‘t bring myself to cancel #BOTM 6y

JaimeDawn My resolution is pretty simple. I can only get a new book if I've read 5 of the ones I already own. 6y

melissajayne My resolution is to get rid of books that are just sitting on my shelf that I haven‘t cracked and read the ones I have before getting more. 6y

sprainedbrain @JaimeDawn That‘s brilliant! 6y

sprainedbrain @melissajayne I did that a few weeks ago... I donated a whole box of books that have been sitting on my shelves for years. Finally just had to ask myself if I was ever going to read them, and for that box, the answer was no. 😳 6y

AmyG Complete the Booked 2018 challenge. 6y

bio_chem06 I'm finishing the last library stack I have and I'm reading the books from my bookshelf this year. So many great books and I keep ignoring them. 6y

needleminding I have mixed feelings about donating books because it's really comforting to me to be around books. And for so many years I was unable to keep more than perhaps 10 at a time. That said, books should be read! Not hoarded! So I'm going to try to read from what I already own first and foremost, then give away books that I don't love or feel a strong connection with. 6y

needleminding Also, your reading challenges and goals are inspiring. 👌🏼 6y

sprainedbrain @jaimeisbionic I know what you mean... it‘s hard for me to let them go, but I‘ve decided that if it‘s not a favorite (those go on my forever shelf) or I don‘t think I will ever read it again, I need to pass it on. 6y

Susanita The last time I reorganized my books, I made a dedicated read-then-donate shelf. Some of them I might just donate. OTOH if I decide to keep some, that‘s okay too! 6y

AshleyHoss820 @ju.ca.no We need to make that hashtag a thing! 2018: Year of the Chunkster! I'm going to try to read my shelves and only allow myself new books for my birthday. (May 5) Also, I'd like to start my Presidential Biographies challenge, or at least read 2 non-fiction a month. 😊 And definitely make room for the chunksters! 6y

ju.ca.no @AshleyHoss820 it already is a thing😊 it was @Ashley_Nicoletto‘s idea😊 6y

#2018readingresolutions

Didn‘t manage to complete any of the challenges I took on in 2017, ( #LitsyAtoZ or #ReadHarder ) except my Goodreads challenge. I‘m cool with not completing them, but I think they dictated my reading a bit too much and I wasn‘t always feeling it.

SO! In 2018 I‘m only doing GR challenge, upping my target. Going to read according to what I feel like reading, and what my #Litmail group is reading. There! ✌🏽

@Liberty

batsy 💪 I'm a mood reader I've discovered and told myself the same. Then I went and signed up for two challenges 🙄😂 6y

haanim @batsy sooo I just signed up for #MountTBR 🤷🏽‍♀️😆 6y

@Liberty
1. Really really REALLY read all the books next to my bed (this is not even counting my Kindle 😞) - I could easily do another #MountTBR - Everest
2. Continue with #192019challenge
3. Do another #litsyatoz - it‘ll be easy - see pic above☝🏻
4. Write more reviews - in reading so much this year, I didn‘t keep up with that
5. Use my local library more
