Kat (kathrynbou) | 134 comments My goal is always to read a book a week but I definitely want to keep pushing myself to read more this year. I want to spend more of my free time reading without it feeling like I'm making reading a chore!

Last year I read way more than 52, finishing with 211 books read. Because of it being my last year and a half of college, I expect that number to drop. I'm going to try to not focus too much on the number of books and instead try to focus on getting through books that I own and pushing myself to spend more time reading. I hope to be able to read for longer periods of time rather than only reading 30 minute chunks. Hopefully this will help my focus in general!
