A Century of Books


A Century of Books
This is a challenge that bloggers Stuck in a Book and The Captive Reader are attempting to do this year. I decided to do it as well, to challenge myself to read more and not spend all my time staring blankly at my computer when I'm not writing.

I really need to read more. So I decided to read a century of books spanning from 1919 to 2018 because I'm not sure I have or will be able to find books only existing in the 20th Century. Oh well. Maybe next year I'll be able to attempt the 20th Century, when I'm not juggling college.

Time: Well, I want to give myself a year, maybe 18 months because I'm getting a job when I go back to college, and then I'll be trying to get an internship for my practicum after I graduate.
