Fantastic! These are some resolutions I have as well. :)

My resolutions will be:

-Clear review pile
-Read the books that have been on my TBR the longest

I don't have a review pile but I definitely need to read the books that have been on my TBR the longest.

Checking in. I'm not sure about my resolutions yet, but I hope to decide soon.

I'm checking in :D
Not sure about my resolutions yet either though. I'll think about it a little.

I'm checking in. I also need to think about my resolutions..

I really would like to finish some of the series that I already started and I would like to make my tbr list smaller.

So what's everyone doing for Christmas?

I stayed here and spent time with my family.

Do I need to make my resolutions more specific?

Aly, Delitealex already declared the finishing of series, so we don't need to have it twice. And the TBR one is probably too broad because it could include literally any book.

I guess I'm still confused Abby. I apologize.

Those two were just the first that I thought of wanting to do. I didn't realize how broad my one was and that delite had alright wrote the series one.. Oops! Let me think..

My resolutions:

1)Start popsugar 2016 challenge (read at least 5)
2)Read books from listopia list "Books that should be made into a movie"

Should I set a specific number of books?

Copying link for my benefit later..

Aly, could you post a link to the popsugar challenge?

Abby, I will find the link. Also do you think I should set a specific number for the listopia?

I don't think numbers necessarily matter since we're using these resolutions as a group. They are just a part of your personal resolution.

Welcome, Sydney! Just come up with two book resolutions for yourself for the year. But they must also be ones the entire group can use. Look at what we have listed above or the examples Sarah made in the sign-up thread.

Alright Abby. Just wanted to make sure. Thanks!

Sorry I've been away. I had to promise to stay away from any type of social media during the Christmas season. But I'm back!

My resolutions are:
- Continue with The Legend of Drizzt series.
- Read books that were recommended to me by friends.

Now that we have all the resolutions, I'll post them in the review thread for Sarah.

Thanks Abby!

Are you ready, ladies? I just finished up my December books and I'm ready to crack open my first book of 2016!

I have one book I'm reading now that I hope to finish before midnight but it will probably end up just after :)

I have been wanting to read the Drizzt series for a while I hope to read the first 3 in 2016.

I am ready. I am hoping to finish one more book before midnight. I am hoping to start 2016 with a bang!

I just finished my last book of the year with one hour to spare. And it was amazing :)

@Delitealex: That's wonderful! Its an incredible series. I'll start my 2016 off with Drizzt xD

I wish all you girls a happy 2016. May you find many lovely books :)

What did you end up picking to start the new year with?

I'm going to read Pandemonium (Delirium #2)

I feel like I'm taking forever to read my first book, but we started things out with a holiday, so of course it's slow going.

Got my first book read! It was slow at first, but I couldn't put it down today.

Finished my first book. :)

I finished my first, and I'm currently halfway through my second :)
I hope to post the review sometime soon.
