2012 Carefree Reading Challenge

This is a challenge that I’ve created for 2012, to help myself just R-E-L-A-X in regards to my reading. It’s a commitment of sorts — to read books JUST for pleasure, not obligation. For me, that means the following…

In 2012, I commit to:

• read according to my moods ~ if I want to read romance, I will read romance; if I want to read self-help, I will read self-help.

• read books that aren’t for obligation ~ books that aren’t needing to be reviewed by a certain date, books that don’t have to be returned by a certain date, etc. Library books come with a bit of pressure so, much as I love them, I’m going to try to borrow very few library books, in 2012.

• read mostly my own books ~ sort of like the last commitment, really, but with a twist: I want to read books that have sat on my shelves for a while, waiting patiently to be read, always getting put off because of some other “obligation”.

Feel free to join me, if you like. You can borrow the button.   But there are no real rules, and you don’t have to use the commitments I’ve stated… this is a challenge where you make up your own rules.
