Amanda Niverson | 8 comments Hi folks! I’m late to the game but I thought I had already posted my number of books challenge for 2019. I would like to read 10 books this year with at least half of them being ones from my bookshelf that honestly have been collecting dust. Here goes nothing.

I’ve already finished Girl Wash Your Face.

1 down. 9 to go.

Jennifer What are you going to read next? I am trying to read books that have been on my TBR list for what seems like forever.....currently reading Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood

Amanda Niverson | 8 comments Jennifer, I picked up a book called Fervent that has been on my book shelf for a few years. I’m about 50 pages into it and am having to tell myself to keep going because I have a history of starting a book and losing interest. I think my next book will be a fiction book.

Jennifer Is that by Priscilla Shirer? I believe my best friend is reading that as well. Small world...I also have a history of starting books and losing interest so then I don't read at all because I feel like I should finish the book I am not interested in first. And honestly at the end of last year I stopped reading something purposefully and it felt awesome...I figure I can always go back if it strikes my interest more in the future. It took me a lot of tries to get through Little Women but last year I was able to just fly through it. Just my perspective :-) Good luck!

Amanda Niverson | 8 comments Hey ladies! I found that I hit a bit of a slump and my typical old habits came back. I found Girl Stop Apologizing while visiting my parents on vacation and am starting it now. I am going to give it my best shot to get nine books read by the end of the year to meet my goal. Happy reading!

Sometimes live just happens.. Is this new book helping you to get out of your reading slump?
