Your suggestions regarding reading have challenged me. Reading “War and Peace this year following your weekly posts has been great. The size of the book always prohibited me even starting. With applying your tips I am challenged to read more this year. Frankenstein created quite a bit of conversation with others.

I am in my 80s and limited to outside activities. I knit and will apply much of the tips to this activity.

Not sure how much time the Lord has for me in this life. This has give me a new challenge.

If still breathing in 2024 I will report in with my success!

I have ordered Lonesome Dove from Abe Books website anxious to get reading as you lead us.

God Bless you Jeremy.

Such great ideas Jeremy; I need to revisit a few of these for my own reading life. So often we readers get caught up in the "shoulds" instead of doing what makes our reading lives better. I have the hardest time reading for just a few minutes at a time; I think I'll focus more on that for the coming year. I really only read when I go to bed at night and some nights, more often than not, I fall asleep with my kindle in my hand. When I start again the next day, I have to go back a few pages to remember what it was that I read. Thanks for all of these suggestions. Happy New Year!
