Goodreads 2012 Reading Challenge
Malin has completed her goal of reading 25 books in 2012!
I've completed my 2012 Reading Challenge on Goodreads!I found the Goodreads website in the end of April this year. So, what is Goodreads?
“Goodreads is the largest site for readers and book recommendations in the world. We have more than 12,000,000 members who have added more than 410,000,000 books to their shelves. A home for casual readers and bona-fide bookworms alike, Goodreads users recommend books, compare what they are reading, keep track of what they've read and would like to read, find their next favorite book, form book clubs and much more. Goodreads was launched in January 2007.” I think it was already May when I found out that you could do a Reading Challenge like this and of course I decided to do it. So I added the books I read between January-April and then continued reading during the whole year of 2012.
You can find the complete list of the books I read during 2012 and how I rated them here.
I don't think that 25 books are that much, but since I signed up on the website in the end of April and then started my Reading Challenge in May, I thought it would be best to be reasonable and think about how many books I thought I'd be able to read during the year so that's why I chose 25 books. Since I'm already an active member on Goodreads I can continue doing this Reading Challenge every year to make myself read more books and I probably will do this every year, or as long as I'm active on Goodreads anyway. But so far I've been active on it since April when I signed up and I really like to have a website where I can add all the books I've read and also add books I want to read and keep track of them.It's simply a really good website for people who love reading, which I really do!
