My "Resolution" for 2015

I don't make New Year's Resolutions. I never have. Nothing has really changed this year except that I do want to challenge myself, in a way. I love reading. It is one of the first things that gets shoved off though when my schedule starts to fill up. So, I am challenging myself to READ! I have signed up to read a minimum of 50 books on GoodReads. I think I can do it! Even 20 minutes a day is enough to finish a book in a decent amount of time. 

While browsing Pinterest this evening, I found this challenge on PopSugar and I really like it! It adds in another dimension. We'll see if I can get it done. I :) 

  • A book with more than 500 pages 
  • A classic romance
  • A book that became a movie
