Assessing Those New Year's Resolutions
As I wrote a month or so ago, I only had one New Year’s Resolution: Read 26 books, which is 1 book every other week. I took on this goal after my friend, Heather, almost made it to her goal of 52 books last year.
Within the first few months of moving to The Little House, I found a community book club through our volunteer fire department’s newsletter. I’ve enjoyed meeting the neighbors (some of them live more than 10 miles away, but they’re still considered neighbors here) and getting together with them once a month at their homes where we enjoy some appetizers and then a potluck lunch after discussing the chosen book for the month. The eclectic pick of books ensures that I read something I wouldn’t normally pick, which is also a benefit of belonging to a book club.
The pick this month is “The Book Thief.”
