Happy New Year!! Wait, already?!


This year has been wonderful.  We've added new (amazing) reviewers, said goodbye to one, read our fair share of books (good, bad, and ugly), and I think I speak for all of us when I say we're excited to see what 2015 holds.

A few years ago, I set a goal to read at least one non-fiction or classic book a month, and it's become a habit I love.  So, this year, I asked our reviewers what their 2015 Reading Resolutions are, and I thought I'd share.

But you've got to be nice and share your resolutions, too!!

Mindy:  "Read something ... anything!  But especially something that requires IQ points to read."

Emily:  "Read every book club book (rather than just showing up for the food and a night out)."

Kari:  "My resolution is to read 35 books this coming year - whether I review all those, that's too be seen!"

Ashley:  "A book a week."

Lara:  "I saw this fun list and thought I might take a stab at it, with some possible modifications.  Some books will cover more than one checkmark.  I'm working on listing what books I plan for each listing, though some I'll leave open for fun!  But first, I'm finishing my re-read of the A Song of Ice and Fire series.  It's a real commitment! :)"

As for me, I love that list Lara's going to use.  But my goal is twofold - break the reading rut and work on absorbing more of what I read.

We wish you the happiest of New Year's days, filled with reading by a fire (or a furnace) and cozy blankets!!
