#BookADayMay 2023

Show & Tell

During the month of May, I participated in Middle Grade Carousel’s Book a Day reading challenge. This year I really wanted to read through Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, make time for some audiobooks I’ve been stockpiling, and enjoy some of the gorgeous graphic novels that have been calling from the home library shelves.

To keep my annual reading goals low pressure and focused on fun, I’ve adopted a scaling system to track my progress. I set my Goodread’s Reading Challenge to 10 books at the start of the year, and when that’s accomplished, increase the goal by an additional 10.
Upon reaching each new milestone, I’ll mark the occasion with a fresh list of books I’m looking forward to reading soon.
