I'm hoping to increase my reading this year and maybe focus more on older books instead of getting overwhelmed by review books.Katherine Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12126062556416434416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-37570419586531906012019-01-01T18:07:59.380-08:002019-01-01T18:07:59.380-08:00I actually learned about the Motif challenge from ...I actually learned about the Motif challenge from your blog.

Guess why? I adopted a baby that year and was a *little* busy with her :) LOL. Little kids definitely make reading more difficult!

I didn't read as many books as I wanted to in 2018, but I did do a ton of genealogy as well as some other personal projects, so it's all good.<br /><br />Ha ha. My blogging resolution for 2019 really should be to keep up with reviews so I don't feel like I have to review ALL the books I read all year in the last weeks of the end of the year. LOL.<br /><br />Happy New Year!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-8288305886870585632019-01-01T15:30:42.471-08:002019-01-01T15:30:42.471-08:00You had a great year!

All the nonfiction I've been reading lately is a bit slower, plus I have another kiddo these days, so, you know, less time and all that. ;) <br /><br />I love that you track where all your fiction is set! I always had the plan to read something set in every state, and then every country, but I haven't gotten around to that quite yet. Maybe one day. :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14263897351215100419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-30392035904371490052019-01-01T14:21:56.361-08:002019-01-01T14:21:56.361-08:00Susan, you read an amazing amount of books!

There are tons set in New York, Massachusetts, etc. but hardly any set in South Dakota, Michigan, Minnesota, etc. At least that's how it seems to me!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-71164640397707295812019-01-01T11:28:48.814-08:002019-01-01T11:28:48.814-08:00I didn't get through as many books as I wanted...I didn't get through as many books as I wanted to, but I didn't do too badly either :)<br /><br />Happy New Year to you, too!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-12606536320143474622019-01-01T09:49:05.857-08:002019-01-01T09:49:05.857-08:00I was tracking the settings for my books too!
