While rearranging my bookshelves one day in an attempt to create more space for books (a topic for another blog post), I came upon a copy of Stephen King's The Stand. I don't remember when I bought it or why. However, when I saw it this time, I had an urge to read it. I've heard many Stephen King fans say that it's his best work, and if I'm not going to read it now, will I ever?
The copy I own is the Complete and Uncut Edition in paperback format, weighing in at over 1,400 pages. As if I didn't have enough reading challenges for 2020 already, I'm adding another one: finishing The Stand by the end of the year.
Despite everything negative that has happened this year, 2020 has been a good year for reading. I'm on track to read more books than last year, and there's a slim chance that I'll match the 100 books I read in 2015! So how could adding a 1,400+ book to my reading goals hurt? Check back at the end of the year to see how I do!
