The Reading Challenge Group discussion

Last year, I did the Goodreads book challenge and set my goal at 50. I ended up reading 71 books, thanks to Audible! This year, I'd like to be a bit more deliberate about the books I read and add some more non-fiction.

Challenges for 2016:

The Goodreads Challenge - 65 books

The Buyer's Remorse/TBR Challenge - 20 books

Genre Challenge/Group Reads - 1 book per month
