Books

When I started this blog and made a commitment to savoring all of the things in life that I truly love, one of the first things I knew I needed to do was get back into reading for pleasure. It’s hard to do in college, but it’s something that’s brought me happiness for as long as I can remember, and I missed the feeling of curling up with a good book and being transported somewhere else for a while so much.

So, I made a goal for myself. To read 52 books in one year. This is most likely a lofty goal, but I’m okay with that. It will expose me to new ideas, new stories, and new authors. It will force me to tear my eyes away from my computer, my TV, and my phone. It will give me a stress-free outlet to get away from the stress of school, work, and extracurriculars. Really, there are no downsides to this challenge in my eyes.

I’ll keep the list of all the books I read here, so all of the links to my Book of the Week posts are right here in order!
