Here's to a great 2014, cozy reading corners, hot chocolate, being a better you, and putting a dent in the TBR list.
Read 100 books. I have challenged myself to read a 100 books this year. And if I complete it, it will be a new record for me.
Read two - three more books in the Outlander series. These books are super intimidating because of length, but at the same time keep you turning pages. I just finished Outlander, and cannot wait to see where Jamie and Claire's journey takes them.

Put the kindle down and pick up copies from my shelf. I have so many GREAT books waiting for me on my shelf, but the ease and convince of eBooks keeps getting in the way.
Become KA junkie. I hear she is the queen of Alpha males (my very favorite), and all my Goodreads friends rave about her books. I need -- must -- find out for myself. So, I want to start and finish her Rock Chick series.
Read the older books that I've one-clicked, but somehow managed to slip away to the dark corners of my kindle.
Don't shy away from the classics. I still need to read Pride and Prejudice.
Finish, or at least catch up with, the following series (most of which are YA):
Read Divergent before the movie. This goal isn't too hard, but I've yet to pick up this book. And I MUST read it before the movie comes out. Along with movies, I want to reread Mocking Jay this year.
Finish the HP series. I read most of them when I was young, but never finished.
Have fun. I don't want reading or blogging to stress me out to the point that I don't still enjoy it.
What made your list? Link up in the comments and I'll be sure to stop by.

Great goals and resolutions you have listed and I agree with all of them :) I also have a few series on my list that I want to complete and so many more I been threatening to start! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteChanzie @ Mean Who You Are.
I know. I thought about doing a list of series I wanna start (besides the ones that I've already mentioned). I really wish I could knock out some on the to be finished list first there. But of course, I've already added two more series since the New Year started. haha, I can't help it :)
DeleteI'm aiming for the big 100 too! :D
ReplyDeleteAlso DEFINITELY check out Divergent. I've only just read it and I rushed out straight away to get Insurgent. It was THAT good. One of those books that, surprisingly, lives up to all the hype!
Yay for the big 100! We can do it :D
DeleteI'm glad to hear that. I already own the book. I just have to make myself pick it up soon.
Do it :D
DeleteAt first I was a bit 'eh' (I think for the first couple of chapters) but after that I was hooked! Nervous about Allegiant though, the reactions to its ending seem to be REALLY bad :(
I think I read the first few pages a LONG time ago. And never picked it up since. It was just a busy time. Good to know about the first couple of chapters. Can't wait to give it a try.
DeleteHoly SHeeT!! lol
ReplyDeleteCrazy how this worked out but I was just saying on one of my group discussions on GoodReads how I really wanted to read the Outlanders series soon! I've had books 1 & 2 sitting on my shelf for almost 2 years now. Also I just suggested Pride and Predjudice for a BOTM read on GR b/c I also want to read more classics, having not read P&P yet!!
Isn't that BA-NAN-AS!?!?!?!?! Great Minds think alike :) xoxox
Hahaha! The first book of the Outlander series is amazing. So many emotions passed through me while reading that book. Looks we have similar goals and great minds DO think alike. :D :D I'm gonna add you on twitter so we can keep up with our awesome ness. I'm curiosu to see what you think of OUtlander for sure!
DeleteDivergent is such a good book. Definitely a good New Year's resolution.
ReplyDeleteAnd have fun--yes times a million. Never let blogging get in the way of your love of reading and books. It's all for fun and enjoyment :) That's something that I definitely have to work on as well.
Great resolutions! Thanks for stopping by my site, and good luck on your 100 books challenge :)
Thanks Sasha! And I agreee, I've enough stress in my life without adding anymore.
DeleteAnd hopefully I can pick Divergent up soon.
I have had Outlander on my shelf for years now! I have heard such great things about it. Maybe this will be the year.
ReplyDeleteThe first 50- 100 pages was a bit challenging to get through. But after that, this book flows like a charm. If you like historical romances, this should def be the year to give it a try :D
DeleteYou need need need to read P&P. It is seriously my all-time favorite book. Mr. freaking Darcy. So swoony and adorable. I love him. My heart pounds just thinking about him. Seriously. And Divergent! So good! You'll love it. I hope the movie lives up to the book all Catching Fire style.
ReplyDeleteI know I need to. I've seen the movie and loved it. Now I need to meet the book version of Darcy and all his fineness. I thought Catcching Fire lived up for sure. I hope Divergent does live up too.
DeleteGreat goals! I hope you love P&P and the rest of HP! I also hope you like Divergent!
