2014 Reading Challenge and a Thank you

This year, I've decided to try to read at least 200 books! (Can you tell that I'm excited? :D )

I've been really enjoying it so far, it gives me a great excuse to spend my time reading when I should be studying. :)

The decision hit me when I was in a library with one of my close friends. The funny thing is, I was originally planning to aim for 150...
 Until my friend said that it was a ridiculous goal and 100 would be plenty.

Well.

I immediately decided on 200, walked over to a nearby bookshelf and got started.

So thank you (you know who you are). I'm so grateful  that you encouraged me to aim higher.
Perhaps it was an accident. But it really wouldn't surprise me if you'd thought I'd do something like that. After all, you know how contrary I like to be.
