Happy New Year! 2017 Reading Challenge

Happy New Year!

I feel like this season was super fast and crazy, specially at work, but my family and I had a wonderful Christmas and New Years. Last night we had a big and delicious dinner all together to wait until midnight to celebrate this new year. 

Regrettably, I failed miserable at my 2016 reading challenge.....I even thought about not making a reading challenge for this year, but I do love challenges, so I decided to challenge myself with a more realistic number.


Hopefully I can complete this challenge and read even more. I do want to read more non-fiction books and finally read all those to-be-read books I have on my bookshelf before I buy more.
Do you have any reading goals for 2017? Let me know in the comments, and we can support each other!

    I hope you make your reading goal this year, and even go over! I do want to read a LOT more of the books I own.

    Happy New Year!

    Good luck with your more realistic goal! I hope you make it and more. :) I can totally relate to wanting to read more books off my TBR list! Hope 2017 is a happy and healthy one for you.

    I'm horrible at challenges so I stick to the generic Goodreads one and chose 120 books for the year. In 2017 I really want to clear out my existing TBR books though.

Welcome to the Banned Books Week Hop giveaway! Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer and I Read Banned Books . I don't believe in banning books (or anything at all). I believe that we are capable of thinking for ourselves and we are able (and have the right) to choose what we want to read/see/think/believe. The Banned Books Week is basically a week where readers decide to defend their right to read whatever they want. It's the perfect week to decide four yourself it you want to read read that book some people is tying to challenge or ban... Intellectual freedom—the freedom to access information and express ideas, even if the information and ideas might be considered unorthodox or unpopular—provides the foundation for Banned Books Week. BBW stresses the importance of ensuring the availability of unorthodox or unpopular viewpoints for all who wish to read and access them.  More information about the Banned Books Week here. I'm sure there is a lot to say abo...
