Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ

Here's where I'll keep track of all the challenges I plan to join! I'm also keeping track in my bullet journal this year, so maybe that added creative touch will help me to actually get it done.

My end goal is 52 books, one per week for the year. I plan to reward myself at the junctions of:
-more than I did this year (5 books, so far, will be at least 6 or 7)
-12 books (one a month)
-26 books (halfway)
-40 books (I turn 40 this year!)
-52 books completed
