message 47: by Jan, Moderator (new)

Jan | 21078 comments I hate when life gets in the way of our reading. But I've been there! Last winter I didn't read a single in a four month period and almost stopped this group. It took me a while to get back into it and get "re-motivated". Good luck!!


message 48: by Chrystal (new)

Chrystal (chrystal0830) | 157 comments yeah, im definitely feeling more motivated and have a few that I need to just finish as I am almost done....like 4 of them.
It was also hard as I loved going to the library and I wasn't able to for so long! Good luck to you as well! :)
