2012 Final Update: Reading

Update: Check out my 2013 Reading List in this post!

Here is the final update on my reading for 2012. I set a goal to read 36 books and I actually read 43 books! I really enjoyed having a set list of books to read...it kept me focused on my goal. I also read additional books that weren't on my initial list (and I adjusted my Reading List partway through the year!), but overall, this was a great experiment for me.

Because of my great success (and love for reading!), look for my 2013 Reading List tomorrow!
