Jonathan Brown's 70-Book Challenge for 2021
Jonathan wrote: "I had a sense in advance that I had a lot going against hitting the 90-book goal I'd set for myself last year. But little did I know what zany antics 2020 would get up to! Having undergone a pretty serious illness, various job-related traumas, etc., in the end I only managed 64, my second-to-worst year since I've been tracking.
I want to beat that in the new year. I'm determined to recover my focus. So while I hope to read plenty, I'll consider this year a success if I can manage 70 books."
64 and 70 are still pretty amazing, even if they weren't what you wanted to reach. Good luck in 2021!

I had a sense in advance that I had a lot going against hitting the 90-book goal I'd set for myself last year. But little did I know what zany antics 2020 would get up to! Having undergone a pretty serious illness, various job-related traumas, etc., in the end I only managed 64, my second-to-worst year since I've been tracking.
I want to beat that in the new year. I'm determined to recover my focus. So while I hope to read plenty, I'll consider this year a success if I can manage 70 books.
So far, I've completed just one:
