So what are your plans?
Bookwise, I'm trying to read more fiction. For the past few years I've really struggled with fiction, so this year I'm trying to read the books I've been dying to read but have always put off.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones?
I'm doing my usual Goodreads challenge, but this year I've upped it to 50 books.

Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach?
See above :)

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series?
I'm finally diving into Terry Pratchett, which I'm excited about!

What are the new books you're looking for in 2021?
I'll be honest, I don't really pay attention to releases these days so I don't even know what books are due out this year,

So what are your plans?

Just trying to read more and be less hung up on challenges

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones?

Goodreads and Popsugar (but this one I'm less worried about finishing) I always do the literary destinations one and the alphabet challenge and this year adding cloak and dagger (any mystery) and deleting craving for cozies because honestly I don't crave them much


Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach?
60 books

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series?

So what are your plans? As far as reading goes, I'm pretty much staying the course.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones? As I've mentioned, I've joined Mount TBR, The Monthly Motif, and The Unread Shelf 2021.

Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach? I think I'm automatically signed up, because Goodreads has sent me updates through the years as to how I'm doing.

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series? I imagine I'll discover new authors, but I still plan to continue reading the authors that I love.

What are the new books you're looking for in 2021? The next in several series. They're already being advertised, but won't be out for awhile.

So what are your plans? No plans this year. Other than to read regularly.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones?
I haven't joined any yet other than Goodreads and I set my target at 12 books. One a month.

Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach? LOL Just answered that one above.

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series? Most likely a bit of both. I tend to choose books by the plot synopsis so i am always discoering new authors. I do also like to read books by old favourites.

What are the new books you're looking for in 2021? Whatever catches my eye.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones? Goodreads, Cloak and Dagger and Flourish and Blotts Magic in th books
Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach? Yes! I set up the same goal as last year : 40 books
Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series? I'd like to discover new authors but not necessarily new styles or genre. There are still so many books to read in my favourite genres...
What are the new books you're looking for in 2021? "Heartstopper Vol 4", "What Abigail did last Summer" from the "Rivers of London" series, the new Asterix coming out at the end of the year, "The Hourglass Throne" from the "Tarot Sequence" series, "Any way the wind blows" from the "Simon Snow" series.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones? Goodreads and I belong to a group there that has challenges throughout the year that I like to partake in.
Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? Yes, I set by goal to 50 but I will up it if I can get more time to read.
Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series? I'd definitely like to discover new authors and I love when I find a new series and I can binge read.
What are the new books you're looking for in 2021? For Batter or Worse (Cupcake Bakery Mystery #13) by Jenn McKinlay. This series is so fun. All my other series that I read don't have anything coming out this year that I know of.

So what are your plans?
Mainly to meet and hopefully exceed my GR reading goal.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones?
A couple small ones. The GR Reading Challenge, of course. I'm also planning to try the Read (Agatha) Christie 2021 Challenge. It's only 12 books long and the categories are broad.

Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach?
Yep. And 50+ books

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series?
Hopefully both!

What are the new books you're looking for in 2021?
I'm not really sure.

So what are your plans? Last year I helped start a book club but couldn't participate for most of the year because of family issues, and then it moved to ZOOM because of COVID. I'd like to begin attending the monthly ZOOM meetings.

Will you take part in some challenges? Which ones? I'm doing a Winter Reading Bingo.

Will you take part in the Goodreads reading challenge? What goal did you want to reach? Like last year, I signed up to read 26 books. I read about 40 last year.

Do you plan to discover new authors, new styles? Or will you keep going with loved authors or ongoing series? No plans either way.

What are the new books you're looking for in 2021? I'm not. I read pretty erratically, I guess.
