My Reading Challenge 2020

I try to only allow myself one shelf for my “to read” pile and once I’ve read them they go to straight to the charity shop or a book swap.

However not only is my shelf packed but thanks to a couple of successful trips to local charity shops they’re taking over a second shelf. Uh oh!

So, after taking them all of the shelves and counting them up I’ve decided that this year, I’m to read through them all!

As always, I’ll be using my smiley face rating scale from nah to braw. Hope you enjoy following along on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram.
