150+ reading challenge for 2013


I've got to admit, I did awful with this challenge last year.  I aim to do much better this year although I'm going to be a bit conservative in my estimating how much I'll read.

Amy over at My Overstuffed Bookshelf is hosting the 150+ Reading Challenge again this year.  Head on over here to sign up!

This year I'm going to say I will read 168 books.  That's only 14 books a month so I should be able to handle that.  I think I'll reevaluate in a couple of months and decided whether I want to go for more or maybe less.  There's so many books I want to read this year, so many books coming out that I NEED to read so I'm hoping that will be enough to get me going.

Good luck to me!
