With 2020 here now I'm trying to capture some of the success I had in 2019. This year like last year I'm going to work on the books on my shelves. The reading challenge for the year is 225 books, but for this challenge here I want to read 150 of my own books. They had to have been on the shelves before November 1, 2019 ( as this is the new quarter and new year on the pagan Celtic calendar).
Here are a few of the books I wish to read from each section of my shelves. I'm making the prompts and recommendations to myself as seasonal as possible. Having noted my reading patterns over the years I notice that some seasons I really dive into certain genres and to help keep me on task I'm going to do this again,
General Books:
- Beverly Jenkins (7)
- Tara Sue Me (5)
- Jennifer Cruise (5)
- Maya Banks (10)
- Sylvia Day (5)
For me nothing says spring like young love. With that in mind YA, and NA are my main focuses during this season.

These are some of the authors and titles on my shelves I really which to focus on, of course there are others that I will be checking out and pulling from the shelves. If I update this or change any others not listed on the other challenges I will add them in here.
Happy Reading my loves,
