Since I didn’t reach my 55-book reading goal for 2021 I am keeping the same goal for 2022. I took out five books from the library a few days ago and am already on the third book. Did you start reading any books yet this year?

I'm hoping to read more books this year but I need to get my act together and get started.

@lovebuglena I have no idea but probably not more than one a month. I have spurts sometimes and might read 2 or 3 a week but then I stop again.

How many books do you usually read a year?

@JudyEv right now I’m really into reading. Hope that continues.

I bought several volumes of Bryce Courtenay's, and Jack Higgins' last April 2021. So far so good in my enjoyment of their bestselling novels.

Great that you are enjoying your books. How many books do you own?

@lovebuglena Modesty aside, about a roomful of hardbound antique classics and other 20th Century authors we have loved over the years.

@everwonderwhy I wish I had a large room filled with books. Wonder how many books I own. Some are still at my parents’ house though.

@lovebuglena I don't know, either. I just read a lot.

@DaddyEvil maybe they spend a majority of their waking hours reading. Or perhaps they read very fast.

I hope so too. But I just want to read more books. I really don’t know how people can read hundreds of books a year.

Good luck on reaching your goal. My goal is to start reading again this year. I have tons of books in my bookcase.

I hope you start reading some books. Nothing like escaping into a good book.

That is a wonderful goal. I should definitely read more, I haven't read a single book last year.

Never too late to start reading.

@lovebuglena I used to read a lot, but for a couple of years very little.

No, not yet. I might start tomorrow. Do you find that reading improves you're ability to think? Do you get distracted from everyday tasks?

I really enjoy reading. Sometimes though, my thoughts drift to something else while I am reading. And I hate it when that happens.

I don't read books anymore. Never did enjoy doing it for school. I hope you reach your goal, though. You're off to a good start.

I am half way done with book three. If I am able to read five books a month than I will have 60 books by the end of the year.

I’ve only read one. I usually read more but I think I’m spending too much time on Mylot.
