Y’all January was exactly 276 days long 😂 And even though for the first couple weeks I felt like I was making no progress in my books, I still managed to read 21 books, with these 7 being off my unread shelf or was a reread. I’m already doing WAY better at reading from my shelves this year than last, even with this 1-in-3 ratio. I’m calling it a success 💯
