My Challenge should I choose to accept it
When I was in highschool I made a list of things I wanted to do before I died (bucket list?) and I wrote them on my bedroom wall. I think there was only 10, and I forget most of them, but they were things like "Visit France and buy a whole outfit and eat real french bread" and "own a piece of the rainforest". Since starting on Goodreads I have added many books and am reminded of a goal I forgot about, which was to read 500 books by 25. As I add my 300th book to my "read" list on goodreads (that I can remember the title of at least) I realised I'm 200 books away from my goal and have only 7 months left before my 26th birthday. At the time I wrote this goal I didn't specify that they had to be novels, all I said was books. Now I know I have read plenty more books than I have on goodreads since I started reading when I was about 4 and have a whole box of childrens books I've read many times and have many books I read for school that I've forgotten about. So lets say I add 100 books to the list to make up for all the books I read as a child and all the school books I read for projects. That leaves me 7 months to read 100 books to reach my goal of reading 500 books before my 26th birthday. I legitimately want to try and reach this goal and I thought, "Hey, maybe I'll blog about it". I'm starting late, I've got 92 books left to reach 400 books on Goodreads, but I am going to start blogging my experience through this starting now. I need to read approx 13 books every month for the next 7 months to accomplish this goal by Feburary 18th which will is my 26th birthday. So look forward to many a blog post in the coming months. Depending on how much I struggle through some of the books on my list I might post at the end of each book or post once I get part way through. Wish my luck!!
