2018 Alphabet Soup Reading Challenge
The Alphabet Soup Challenge is hosted by Escape with Dollycas Into A Good Book and means that by December 31, 2018 my bowl must be full of one book for each letter of the Alphabet. I did this challenge last year for the first time and really had fun with it, so I’m ready to give it another go. I am carefully evaluating my reading challenges for this year and only keeping a few, so this one made the list.
The challenge is to read one book that has a title starting with every letter of the alphabet. You can drop the A’s and The’s from the book titles. The First Main Word Needs To Be The Letter You Are Counting, Except For those pesky Q, X AND Z titles where the word that starts with the challenge letter can be anywhere in the title.
What’s In a Name 2018
It’s time again to choose my word for the year. It’s an attempt to choose a word that influences my state of mind throughout the year and creates a structure and framework for my life. Thanks to 
Another reading year has come to an end and here’s the tally for the year. Fun Fact: I read the exact number of books this year as last year! What? My re-reads were down, audio-books up, and series books really up. Looking forward to a great reading year in 2018!
