I sign up for reading challenges every year. The last time I actually completed one was back in
2015. This year is going to be different. I am going to try and use overdrive more and not spend as much money on books this year. I have also set a goal to watch 52 movies this year.
EDIT 12/15/21: Kinda sputtered out on this challenge. Oh well, been reading more lately though. There's always next year.
Goal:
Read 52 books
Watch 52 Movies
Books read: 23
