The Bookworm Challenge discussion

For the first time in several years, I don't think I will complete my reading goal! Last year, with Covid, I read a record number (for me) of book. With the easing of restrictions this year, there has been more in person interactions with family, friends and organizations to which I belong. I have found that I don't spend as much time reading as I have the past few years. Also, with aging family members, there were lots of health concerns so more time spent with family.
Anyone else finding this as well?

Last year was my record year as well. I had planned on reading less this year because I felt I was spending too much time reading. But then came the book chain challenge! I have become obsessed with it. So this year looks like it will be a record. Next year hopefully I will find other things to do. As for aging family members I am the "aging" family member. The only concern I may have given my family is that I read too much!

I think i could still reach my goal, but only because i set it much lower than in past years. so in a way me too! i have definitely been reading less, though i'm not certain why. i think 2018 was my record year and doesn't come close to you two haha!

I’ve already met my goal, but my reading has dropped since mid-August because I started graduate school. The one regret I have about going back to school is the impact it’s had on my reading. Well, I am reading a lot for school, but none of it is on Goodreads! 😂

I've found the same thing - last year and this year have been records for me, but with things going back to 'normal' my reading stats will suffer :(
