MARVEL each year as I mix and match literature for my book club, classics I feel like I should probably read, and new fiction without rhyme or reason.
GOGGLE as I try to read at least 52 books a year (which let’s face it is not much for an avid reader) and then still sometimes fall short due to a failure in work/life balance!
SMILE KNOWINGLY when it is clear I have discovered a new author, and am finding ways to justify buying more of their books despite having a 30+ backlog of already-purchased books sitting by my desk.
SEE below for links to my annual record-keeping!
