Hi! I hope you had a wonderful holiday season. I don't know about you, but it feels like the holidays were just last week! So how it is possible that we are just days away from ushering in February??? There have been some health issues happening in the family so I'm a little behind on setting my 2025 and Q1 goals. But I did find time to sit down and work on them. I'd like to share one with you along with a few tips that I think could be helpful. January is a time of fresh starts, renewed motivation, and setting intentions for the year ahead. If you’re like me, reading is a core part of your life, and what better way to kick off 2025 than by setting some inspiring reading goals? Whether you’re a voracious reader or someone looking to rediscover the joy of books, here are some ideas for New Year reading resolutions to help you make 2025 your most bookish year yet!
1. Read Outside Your Comfort Zone We all have our favorite genres (hello, cozy mysteries!), but sometimes it’s fun to branch out. 2. Set a Number Goal Want to read more books this year? Setting a specific number can help you stay on track. Whether it’s 12 books (one per month) or 50 books, make it a goal that excites and motivates you. Don’t worry if life gets busy—any progress is a win! 3. Support Indie Authors and Bookstores Independent authors and local bookstores need love, and supporting them can add meaningful books to your shelf. Make it a resolution to read at least a few books by indie authors or buy from your favorite neighborhood bookstore. 4. Create a Reading Ritual Turn reading into a self-care practice by setting a regular time to read. Maybe it’s 20 minutes before bed, a Sunday morning with coffee, or during your lunch break. Consistent reading time helps you unwind and ensures you’re always making progress on your TBR pile. 5. Start a Reading Journal Track your thoughts, favorite quotes, and reviews in a reading journal. Not only does this make reading more intentional, but it’s also a great way to reflect on everything you’ve enjoyed throughout the year. 6. Join (or Start) a Book Club Reading can be even more enjoyable when you share it with others. Join an online or local book club to discover new books and engage in lively discussions. Can’t find one that matches your interests? Start your own! I hope that you find one or more of these tips helpful. I'd love to you what your tip(s) are for reading more books. Just hit reply and share your tip(s) with me. I'd love to hear from you.
