To finish 12 books and become an 'Avid Reader'
Because the big publishing houses refer to someone who buys 12 books a year as an "avid reader," my goal will be to finish 12 books.
*****
Throughout last year, I purchased many Kindle books because they were free or very inexpensive. I now find that many of them should not be considered books, but rather very lengthy magazine articles.
The short items I will list with an alphabet letter, and the genuine books with a number.
