I've been thinking about 2026 and I'm coming close to setting my challenges, but I'm not quite there.

As for 2025, my doorstop challenge has been an abysmal failure. And I knew last spring that committing to reading a Victorian novel for a book group at the same time I needed to get another doorstop read was a guaranteed fail, but I persisted. I never did get back on track.

Reading all my 2025 purchases was never a formal challenge, but it was on my mind. I was doing great though July; since then I've bought five books and read only one and the other four aren't going to be read by year's end. Right now, I'm trying to hold the thought that I never get substantive reading done during the holidays and with Thanksgiving this week, I need to focus on finishing what I've started and not starting anything major until next year. I hope that typing that here bolsters my resolve!
