That’s probably not really a thing but at least it’s fun to rhyme. This is just one snapshot on a “warmer” afternoon this past month, and about ten minutes after it was taken it started trying to snow again.
The first quarter is officially over but at least in Boise, it still feels like winter. BRRR.
The first quarter is officially over but at least in Boise, it still feels like winter. BRRR. Which means more time to spend cozy by the fireplace with a good book.
It’s also a good time to check in our 2023 goals (reading or otherwise). I didn’t set a bunch of non-reading goals this year because I’ve overdone that in the past so this year I’m focusing on simplicity and strength – however that appears in my life – including in my reading.
I’m still exceeding my reading goals for the year and I can’t wait to see how this continues throughout the year. Here’s how my stats currently look:
- Original Reading Goal – 93/250
- Lofty Reading Goal – 93/365
- Old TBR Goal – 30/100
- Overall TBR Read – 56
- ARC Books Read – 10
- Books Bought – 27
My total TBR on 1/1/23 was 602. I am currently at 576 as of 3/31/23. PROGRESS!
