message 1: by Brandon (new)

Brandon Baker For the past few years I’ve set my goal as 1 and haven’t pressured myself to read if I didn’t feel like it, and as a result, I read the least amount of books I’ve read since I got back into reading 8 years ago 😅 I’ve read every single day this year, and while I haven’t finished a book yet, I’m having a good time with most of what I’ve read!

Alexandra Steen Some healthy pressure is good! But remember that reading is for fun, and if you’ve read one book this year you are ahead of 50%+ Americans! It’s okay to have the pressure valve off, I hope you read some amazing reads this year!
