Arlington Public Library discussion

I do the Goodreads challenge every year, but in a way I wish I didn't. It does put a lot of pressure on me (actually I put the pressure on myself), and keeps me from trying new authors, new genres, and high-page count books.
One benefit, however, is that it makes it easier for me to give up on a book I really don't like, which I seem to have a hard time doing.

^^^^what Patricia said. This might be my last year to accept the Goodreads challenge. I think next year my challenge will be to myself to simply read at least one chapter from a book daily. No more, no less. Slow, steady reading through the year. Let the chips fall where they may.
