2023 Reading Goals

Happy New Year! Let's hope we break the curse of the 2020s this year. Not just the pandemic, but I've been struggling with my reading. Last year I think was the worst, although that's hard to say because I didn't track 2020 or much of 2021. I also struggled even in my tracking because many of the books I borrowed from my library or Scribd did not get added to my tracking spreadsheet. I hope to have a post somewhat soon, as in sometime this month, about reading apps. For reasons I'll get into in that post, I feel this may help with my excuses for forgetting to add, or just not adding books to my tracking.
