2018 should be an interesting year of books for me. Last year I set a GoodReads Reading Challenge Goal of 52 books which I literally finished on 12\/31\/2017.<\/p>\n
Some of my librarian friends mentioned the Book Riot Read Harder Challenge back in early 2017 and I joined the forums but never visited. This year, I’m in two book clubs and I feel trying to do the Read Harder Challenge will let me be a bit more focused on what I read.<\/p>\n

As readers, we’re usually reading another book not long after finishing the book club pick.<\/p>\n
