Every year since 2014, I have written down book goals. They help me stay focused and not worry about what book I am going to read next. However, it's no a set list. I am not the type of person who has to read a certain book. I may want to, but if I do not get around to it for a long time, then I will be okay. The main reason for that is because I do not buy books. Well, I didn't before the middle of 2015. Now, I have bought quite a few books (Gone Girl, The Cinderella Murder, Safe Haven, The Devil Wears Prada, Paper Towns, The Fifty Shades of Grey Trilogy), but that's because I was either 1. out of the country or 2. not in a position to get to the library. All other books that I have read have come from the library.
Anyways, back to talking about my 2016 Books Goals {I set my goal at 50 books this year}. Now, I am more willing to buy books {because a collection would be nice}, and I still have access to a library. This means that I can read more books than ever before. I compile a list on Goodreads of the books that I want to read throughout the year, and I figured why not share the ones that I want to prioritize reading on the blog. Please do note that I will ten times out of ten read books that are not on the list. I will walk into the library and walk out with books that I have never heard of.
