Talking about great books while enjoying tasty libations!
This post provides a list of my favorite books of 2022. It was a great reading year for me! I have read over 125 books so far this year and so many of them were really good. I'm a bit of a geek. I have a spreadsheet in which I keep a list of books... Continue Reading →

2022 - Reading Goals In 2020 I set reading goals for the first time. I wanted to re-read more books, read more self-growth type books and read more series.

June Reading Stats We are halfway through 2020, so I figure this is a good time to reality check myself versus my reading goals for the year. My Goals for 2020 are: Read about 100 books: I completed 55 books, plus 2 that I chose not to finish. (that is 18,404 pages!) Re-read more books... Continue Reading →
2019 in Review As you might know, I track the books I read in a spreadsheet. As a matter of fact, I showed you a picture of my 2020 spreadsheet in my last post. I do this so the geek in me can spend some time at the end of the year and look at... Continue Reading →
2020 Reading Goals Last year my reading goal was simply to read 100 books. I met that goal, but I feel like it led me to focus more on hurrying through books rather than sinking into them. This year I have a few goals, but none of them are overall quantity. #1) I would like... Continue Reading →
