Books of 2023

*This post is ongoing and a list tracker*

Over the last few years, I have kept track and set goals of how many books I want to read that year. Last year I set a goal of 25 and ended the year almost double at 49! I have found some fantastic books that I lose myself in, which have pushed me emotionally and mentally, and some great series and Authors that I now feel even more connected to. It’s crazy how a book can take you into a new reality for a few chapters or hours and leave you feeling relaxed and wanting more.

This year my goal is 50 books! I am hoping I can try to double it again but I know that this seems doable for me and I’m hoping to find some more great Authors and books that can continue to expand my knowledge in many areas.
