52 Books in 52 Weeks

2013 Blog ButtonI am going out on a bit of a limb this year and joining up with the 52 books in 52 weeks challenge. Last year I was able to read 42+ books. So I am thinking maybe I could squeeze in 10 more this year. And I am not sure I counted every one that I read last year. I was blog hopping over on Marsha's Spot, where I found a link to the Read 52 Books in 52 Weeks. So I hopped on over to look at it, and was inspired to join the challenge for the year. Basically, you read one book a week, and review it. I guess you can link up your reviews. I am not sure how well I will keep up, but it sounds like fun!

I have never made a specific book goal before as far as I can remember so this should be interesting. I am hoping it will not feel stressful.  I am almost done with my first book for the year and we are on week 1, so I am off to a good start.

Do you have a book goal for 2013?  I would love to hear how many you plan to read.
