2018 Reading Challenge
So many years have past as I have gotten older and every year I tell myself I am going to change this or that, and every year, well most years, those changes never happen.
Well this year, I am working in challenges. My first challenge for myself is to read at least 26 books this year. Now, I have discovered a fantastic app which I'm sure I'm not the only one who knows about it, called Audible. You see, my commute for work most days, to and from work is about an hour. With this app I am able to listen to books. Sometimes the books are read by the actual author, sometimes a narrator. Some awesome...some not so much.
What I would like to do is share my reading list. Now, my list includes over 30 different books, but that's because I want to read 26 books. The others I may listen to audible and it gives me the opportunity to pick and choose. And you never know, I may add more as the year goes on.
