JessicaMHR | 31 comments Last year I lowered my read goal down to only 50 books. I wanted a easier more relaxed year. I ended up finishing 79 books and coming up short on all of my challenges. I was so close on most of them so we are going to try this again!

I am planning on reading those books I didn't finish first (I wouldn't feel right leaving them incomplete).

So, with a goal of reading 50 books, here we go again! I will be doing the ATY52, Popsugar, and the AtoZ Challenges,. I am adding a new challenge and removing a challenge 50 States, (However, I am still working on finishing the 2021, 2022 and the 2023).

I REALLY want to complete one whole challenge this year before the end of the year. However, I want to try and focus on reading my owned TBR and letting books fit in wherever they fit in.

As was the case last year, I also want to catch up on my book club reading as much as possible.

Book Clubs:
Our Shared Shelf (only from Jan 2016- Dec 2020)
Hello Sunshine (Reese's Book Club)
Oprah's Book Club
Read with Jenna

Below are my finished reads for each challenge.
