100 Books in 2017

Another year, another reading challenge.

I’ve been participating in the 100 Books Challenge since 2012, and in 2016, I read 99 books. This year, I’m challenging myself to read at least #7 nonfiction books and %5 books in genres I ordinarily wouldn’t read.

Share your book-reading goals and suggestions for what to read next in the comments.

I support independent bookstores! Take a minute to check out IndieBound to find your nearest local indie.
