At the beginning of the year, one of the reading goals I set for myself was to read 26 books by authors whose last names begin from A all the way to Z. With 2019 half over, I've read 12 of those 26 books, spanning A to L.
A big reason why I like challenges like this is that it forces me to read authors I normally wouldn't. Mission accomplished so far. Nine of the 12 books I've read during the challenge have been new authors I've never read before. More surprising was how much I enjoyed some of the books, given that many were picked at random to satisfy the challenge's criteria. I rated four of the books five stars, and I'm pretty sure at least one of them will end up on my year-end list of favorite reads.
With six months and 14 more books to go, I'm excited to see discover more hidden treasures among the remaining books in the Authors A to Z reading challenge.
Did you have a reading goal this year? If so, how is it going so far?
