2016 Goodreads Reading Challenge

In a previous post, I mentioned the "Goodreads 2016 Reading Challenge"  For 2016 I set myself a challenge of reading 50 books.  Well I have exceeded the fifty by all expectations.  Today I finished book 65!

This evening, I will be curling up with book 66 by one of my favourite authors - Carole Matthews.  Her latest release is called "Paper Hearts and Summer Kisses".  I love her books as they have believable characters which for some reason I can relate to.

The new book from Carole Matthews is available in the shops now and can also be downloaded to read on the Kindle ap here

Goodreads 2016 Reading Challenge

I am an avid reader of chick lit style books.  If the title involves cakes or Christmas then I get drawn in to downloading them without even reading about the storyline.  I generally use the Kindle app and read from my phone.

Back in December/January Goodreads asks their members if they would like to set themselves a challenge of how many books they will read in 2016.  I set myself the target of 50 books. In previous years I had managed about 35 books.

Here's a list of some of my favourite authors:  Carole Matthews, Jane Green, De-ann Black, Marian Keyes, Jojo Moyes, Katie Fforde, Tilly Tenant, Milly Johnson, Jenny Hale, Rachael Lucas to name just a few.

Well I have done it.  I've finished my 50th book and am about to finish book 51, so I am giving myself a pat on the back as I really didn't think I would do it with weeks to spare.
