GOODREADS for the New Year
Well, here I am again… making a promise that I may not follow through completing. Yes, I know for sure I will read this next year. I always do… So why would this year be any different. The promise of keeping track of them… That usually falls by the wayside.
This year… I want to concentrate on Best Sellers. Don’t really know why. I have done the classics. Last year, I concentrated on books for my classroom. This year… maybe I just want to be selfish… To try something new… Read a few more authors… Get out of the reading rut?
Anyway… Look out neighborhood library. I am going to be on you like flies on molasses. I sure hope that the Large Print Selections have enough selections to keep me reading?
I will have to get better with my Kindle as well. The local libraries are getting better about getting more books for the e-reader as well.

It's All in Finding the Right Words 
Best sellers are best seller for a reason, right? Of course, Fifty Shades of Grey was a best seller too, and I didn’t care for it. But that’s my own, personal opinion.

I have already come across one that will not be in my top ten ratings either!

I get daily emails from EBooksHabit and Book Bub and select from their free selections. I have read some very good books that are free. In fact, this morning, I downloaded one on my Kindle that had 5,000 five star reviews. But, I don’t know if you can get large print. I would think that you could.

Thanks. I get the BookBub but I have never heard of the other one.

EBooksHabit have more books to offer each day than Book Bub. I would say half of them are either .99 or 1.99 and half of them are free.

I just signed up again today. Going for 250 this year over the 200 last year. Good luck with your challenge.

When I wait in line at the grocery store I read the first page of one of the best sellers. I call it my “opening scene” research! 🙂 I read a mixture of debut authors, historical research books, business books, and Brandon Sanderson (he’s my guilty obsession this year). Happy reading!

Far more devoted than me… or your lines are far longer? I enjoy reading, but every year, my reading gets overtaken by things for the seventh grade… that becomes my read list. I am going to try to meld to the two years. I was going to say ‘avoid’… but I knew that would be a lie from the start!
