I’ve decided to join the GoodReads 2016 reading challenge this year. I’ve setup a target of 100 books. About 2 books a week is easy, no?
I’ve decided that if I really, really enjoy the book, I’ll blog a separate post about it, else, will just mention it in my periodic updates.
So, the first four books I’ve read in 2016 are:
- A Series of Unfortunate Events (Book #3) by Lemony Snicket
- Life Before Man by Margaret Atwood
- The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri
- The Robots of Dawn by Isaac Asimov
The choice of the very first book for the year is pretty ominous, right? 🙂 However, I absolutely enjoyed it (talk about schadenfreude!) and the last one too a great deal.
So what do you plan to read this year?

Good luck with the challenge! 🙂
2 books a week is easy? It isn’t, at least for me! I manage to read only about 3 books a month, irrespective of the types of books they are. It used to be 4 books a month before Bubboo happened. 100 books a year is highly ambitious for me. The best I have managed so far is about 48 books, in 2014. 🙂
Hey, lovely to see you here!
I am a binge reader, so depending on the book/my mood/available time, I can read a book (or two) a day. 🙂
Let’s see how this goes anyway – man proposes, and all that!
Anitha what a good way to start the year. I’m just back from Bangalore hence this post at 3.50 am. I just finished 40 rules of love by Elif Shafak and The Short Drop by Matt Fitzsimmons.
Hi Shyla! Great to see you here and always looking forward to book recommendations! I am currently stuck with Natwar Singh’s One Life is Not Enough. I think I might just chuck it.
