Juli’s Comments (group member since Jun 26, 2017)

Juli’s comments from the 75 Books...More or Less! group.

I read more in 2023 than in 2022. 2022 was a tough year for me with a huge workload. We moved across the country early 2023 but I found my reading stride again. I have a big loftier goals for 2024 in terms of book number but I am keeping with "read what strikes me fancy" and no TBR. I hope the be more chatty in this group this year. I did make a 2024 vision board full of vibes. The biggest takeaway from that is to focus on the now. I've done a lot of focus on the future in 2022 and 2023. Time to slow down a bit.

Hahaha, Elyse! That made me laugh. I too gave up on reviews. Can't wait for baby and book updates! Happy 2024!

Happy 2024 reading year!

I love your reading goals!

You got this! Looking forward to your updates!

Happy reading year!

Hoping the same! Welcome back!

Excellent goal!

It's just a number anyway! Enjoy your reading year!

I honestly wish Goodreads would let us set a page number instead of book number. That would do the lengthy books justice!

I like your reset!

I too decided on 125 books for this year! You got this!

Wow, you're busy! I like the idea of more sapphic books!

100 books is a great number!

You're already 4 books into your goal! Woohoo!

You totally got this!

Hi! Welcome back! That's a lot of 2023 books. Fingers crossed for another great reading year!

I am looking forward to another year of reading and this group. I enjoy seeing everyone's updates!

My personal goal is 125 books (but I am not going to force it). I am also doing the Popsugar Challenge again filling in prompts as I go along. I am not going to set a TBR for 2024. That strategy worked well for me in 2023. I will just continue to read what strikes me fancy and if it fulfills a prompt, then yay!
