I am on a quest to read/listen to 104 books this year. Last year, I wanted to complete 52 books, technically one book a week, and I smashed that goal. I believe I completed 60 something books. I will update once I find my planner where I wrote down the books I read. This year, I am not particular about genre or length. I just want to accomplish this goal. I usually read a book from beginning to end, even if I don’t like parts of the book. I am finding that this no longer holds true for me. I am starting to accumulate a list of DNF (did not finish) books. And it is getting longer by the day.
I don’t want to be one of those judgemental people who says a book is bad because who am I? I have never written a book. I don’t have any published works outside of magazines and newspapers. These authors have spent days and nights creating these works of art, and I respect them for it. The imagination used to create new worlds and universes, creatures, and races of people. I am amazed by how their minds work. I have to give credit where credit is due. Yet, sometimes, when I read/ listen to a book, I find myself not caring how the story ends. That is when I know the book is going to be a DNF.
I am currently at around 78 books, I just finished two that I haven’t recorded. I am looking for book suggestions. I am not really a fan of suspense or thrillers, I get impatient waiting for the reveal. I don’t like steamy romances, I think we all get it, I don’t need 2 chapters describing the sex. I have started to like sci-fi, fantasy, and of course, action. I always like butt kicking. I look forward to anything you have to share. Be well and whole. Much Love 🧡 💚
