Oh boy. A lot happened in January and none of it was conductive to reading a lot of books.

At the start of the month I set a goal on Goodreads to read 26 books this year. That’s a book every two weeks. It sounds like a reasonable goal. January just ended and I’m already behind. There were a lot of factors playing into my inability to read in January. I’m not going to go into most of them now but a big one was having one cold after another for more than half the month. It’s made doing everything harder than it should be so of course reading hasn’t been happening.

Books I finished reading in January:

• Heaven Official’s Blessing: Volume 3 – Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

Books I’m currently reading:

• Evasive Winds – A. R. Shellnut
• The Two Towers – J. R. R. Tolkien
• Heaven Official’s Blessing: Volume 4 – Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

Did you set a reading goal for 2023? What books are you looking forward to reading this year? I’d love some recommendations to get my reading mojo back on track.
