This is a very ambitious list. I know that I won't finish it all. I don't have massive time for reading; so, I like to listen to audiobooks while I do other things... like knitting!
So, I encourage you, make a list and check it twice. Then, snatch read if you must, but do read or listen to some good books this winter. Use your minutes!
Count your blessings!
Laura
Love to read and never have enough time but I do it anyway!
ReplyDeleteThat's why I love finding audiobooks on Everand. I listen to several each month for one fee.
DeleteI listen to audio books quite often while I'm knitting/crocheting, cleaning or driving. It's amazig how many you can read that way.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Audiobooks definitely make some of the mundane things much easier to get done.
DeleteKnitting and sewing are just more fun when I can go into a make believe world or learn something new while I stitch.
Blessings,
Laura
I love to read and I enjoy the time I find to do it. I am looking into audible books that I can use in the car.
ReplyDeleteI use the app Everand (used to be Spotify). I can listen to multiple books in a month for one fee.
DeleteBlessings,
Laura
That is an ambitious list for sure. I wish I had more time for reading. I joined our condo book club and have read books I would have never selected on my own. They have all been outstanding books.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a wonderful February! xo Diana
Hi Diana,
DeleteI would never try a list like this if I didn't listen to a lot of audio books on Everand while doing other things. ~smile~
Wouldn't it be lovely to have a couple of hours to read every day!
Be blessed,
Laura
What a strong start with January! I love your concept of "snatch" reading, I am homeschooling a Kindergartener and they say their attention span in minutes is equivalent to their age in years, so I will be snatching for a while! I found you through MaryJanesFarm blog log and when I'm not working on titles required for badges, I am lost in Patrick Rothfuss's trilogy.
ReplyDeleteWow! Bellepic! I've not even been over to MaryJane's Farm for awhile. I'm so glad you found me. I hope you'll visit again soon.

I love reading and I like to listen to audiobooks while I crochet. I have a huge winter stack of books too for winter reading. I doubt ill finish them. We shall see.
ReplyDeleteI understand. I never finish; and, I always seem to add something new I've found to the list! The list motivates me, though.
DeleteHappy crocheting!
Laura
I love to read, but it seems like I always run out of time in my days! I listen to audio books on my Library app. I also joined a Book Club a few years back. Love the discussions! Hugs, Roxy
ReplyDeleteAudiobooks are my friends! I was part of a book club for awhile, but the books they chose tended away from subjects I was comfortable with, so I quit. Maybe I'll find another one someday.
DeleteBe blessed!
Laura
I've never listened to an audiobook. I have a feeling I would zone out. As it is, I sometimes have to reread paragraphs of books because my mind tends to wander at random moments. Mostly I read non-fiction; there's so much to understand and learn from history. Thanks for stopping by my corner of the world. Take care.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great book list you have made. I've always been a reader but now I read much more slowly than I used to. Nevertheless I make time to sit and read every day. Re your last post ( Paradise Lost) I knew very little about it until last year when my granddaughter studied it in Uni. Now I know a tiny bit more than I used to :)
