Newsflash: 2018 is half-way through.
Yeeeaahh… let that sink in for a moment.
Did you make any resolutions to read more this year?
Did you set any particular goals?
Are you on track to meet your goals?
Have you read anything ground-breaking in 2018?
In my 2017 Reading Wrap-Up post, I set the following goals for 2018:
- Read more nonfiction (2017 total: 3);
- Read more historical fiction (2017 total: 5); and
- Read 75 books (2017 total: 63).
So far, I am on track as far as the total number of books goes, but I am not reading nearly enough nonfiction! I have read:
- 2 nonfiction books;
- 6 historical fiction novels; and
- 36 books in total.
Do you have any recommendations for nonfiction? I need your help!
