The Challenge Factory discussion

I imagine one resolution we here on Goodreads don't have a problem with is reading.
But it's possible to get stuck in a rut.

I found a list of reading and writing resolutions on the blog, Because Reading is Better Than Real Life. (Isn't that an awesome title?) You could sign up to participate there or just post your resolutions here :)

Msg. 5 update: I'm calling it finished. If it was any other year, I wouldn't have had a problem listening to audio books while I sewed and got ready for craft shows. But most of my shows were cancelled or I chose not to participate. I honestly don't see getting 5 listened to in just a month's time, 'cause I have about a million to actually read LOL! Fun challenge.

Done on posts 10, 29 and 31
Read 109 books!
