For most of my life I was an avid reader and for 8 years I wrote a blog called The Mystery Bookshelf on Blogger. I know that during my blogging years I was reading between 120-130 books per year. For some reason, I just stopped reading for 4 years. I do not know why. I just got started reading again in 2017 and have read 81 books this year. I am surprised that I read this many books. In the beginning of the year I expected that I might be able to read 30-40 books if I tried hard. I really did not know what to expect because I cannot figure out why I stopped reading.
However, I am still going to sign up for a few reading challenges next year. I am going to skip the Craving the Cozies Reading Challenge as well as the What's in a Name Reading Challenge. The Creativity Reading Challenge was cancelled soon after I joined earlier this year so that challenge is off also. I am not sure about rejoining the New Author Reading Challenge. I have found that as I search for books for other challenges I am finding new authors so there is no point in making a special effort for that challenge.
On to 2018!
