All About Books discussion

Here are my challenges for 2021. Since I am new to the site, I’m going to start fresh with my books, i am not going to add any books I have read previously to 8th January 2021

Listen to 20 audiobooks

1. The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold - finished

Read ten classic novels

1. Dombey and Son by Charles Dickens - finished
2. The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot
3. Wives and Daughters by Elizabeth Gaskell

Read ten nonfiction

1. The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold

I'm keeping my challenges small and simple as I don't like to plan my reading I normally pick my next book whenever I am finished the one I have, i am not a great reader because I struggle to read or even listen to more than one book at a time. I’m doing it right now and I’m struggling.

Plus I’m going to do the group challenge.

Yes, I really did. I would say it’s my favourite by him so far. I’m hoping to read more of Dickens this year.

Glad to know it!

I'm always in favor of people reading more Dickens *grin*!

As usual two birds of a feather!

Added a couple more books to the group challenge.

I have added books that I’m currently reading to the list. I’m not going to bother with adding dates of when I finish a certain book. I only have access to an iPad, which I use like a laptop anyways, most of the time, I have to borrow a laptop to submit essays, when I add my books and edit my posts, it’s proving a nightmare to find dates and add them in so they will simply be marked with finished when I’m done with them.

I’m the same, I have an iPad too and am finding it a nightmare to find dates and add them in. I’m might copy you and just add finished as well.
