One of my goals for 2021 is to read more \u2013 25 books to be exact. To some of you, that may seem like an easily achieved goal. To others, like me, it looks manageable at first and then you find yourself six months into the year with zero books read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, I finally got serious. During the past several New Year\u2019s resolution seasons, I jotted down \u201cread more\u201d as a goal, and each year, I did not even come close. I realized going into 2021 that if I actually want to read more books, I have to make the time to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Read<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

How I\u2019m achieving my goal to read more.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One of the primary ways that I’ve started to achieve this goal is by doing less of other things. I decided to bar movies and TV for all of January and have kept media scrolling to a minimum since then. It\u2019s been great! I\u2019ve read almost 10 books thus far \u2013 several Christian theology, Christian literature and fiction books. Books on marriage, mystery, romance, life, loving people well, you name it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve learned a lot, been inspired, garnered direction for my own writing, and laughed to myself a number of times. I\u2019ve always enjoyed reading, but it\u2019s kind of one of those things that you can forget you love until you start it up again, like working out \u2026 well, for some people anyways! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

To meet my goal, I am trying to read two-three books each month. And, I’m telling you! By sharing this goal, I now have hundreds of people to keep me accountable … ha! Just kidding, I probably have my mom and Nana, but that will work! Mom, Nana, congratulations, you are now my accountability partners to help me read more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another way I’m going to help myself stay on track is by sharing what I\u2019ve been reading and giving little synopses of each along with my thoughts on the books. Kind of funny, who\u2019d have thought after eighth grade English that I, or anyone else, would ever assign themselves a reading synopsis. Mrs. Hare would be proud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Help me read more!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, stay tuned! Maybe you\u2019ll even get inspired to read more. And, if you have any book suggestions, please send them my way! I still have a long way to go before December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m open to any suggestions, so don\u2019t be shy. If you\u2019re a bookworm with about thirty ideas already and wondering where to begin, I am particularly interested in any new Dystopian novels that are worth reading. I\u2019ve read The Hunger Games and really enjoyed that to give you an idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can DM me on Instagram<\/a>, Facebook <\/a>or leave a comment below. And, if you send me a book suggestion on Instagram or Facebook, I\u2019ll share it in my story and tag you. Thanks in advance for helping me achieve my goal to read more in 2021!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
