DEAR Monday: The reading dilemma solved

Last week I posted asking opinions on what I should read next, considering I had just finished a book that was not on my original pile of books to start read in 2012.

I’m sure you’re all on the edge of your seats waiting to know what I decided to read… drum roll please… Last week I read Two for the Dough, Three to Get Deadly, and Four to Score by Janet Evanovich. Not one book but three books.

What can I say? I decided to go with the momentum of reading the first book in the series. I have enjoyed the Stephanie Plum stories very much. Like I was telling my husband, as I read these I think to myself that some of the situations can only happen to Stephanie Plum. I like the characters, the stories crack me up and they are quick reads for me.

The other good thing about continuing with the momentum of the Stephanie Plum series is that reading these has brought my 2012 total books read to 5 out of 25, for 20% complete. According to Goodreads, I am 4 books ahead of schedule towards my goal.

With this considered I may revise my goal and aim for the 52 books in 52 weeks, we’ll see at what point in the year I get to 25. I won’t decide until I make it to 25 total.

What did you read last week?

I call it DEAR Monday because when I was in elementary school, yes I know that was in the last millenium, the reading time during school was called Drop Everything and Read or DEAR. I also found that I would complain a lot about another Monday coming along and I decided to be nicer to Mondays. Mondays are the days I come to my little corner of the Internet and write about what I’ve been reading or plan to read.

    For Christmas, my husband got me a subscription to Easton Press’ 100 greatest books. I get one each month now. So, I’ve promised myself I’m going to keep up with them as they arrive. I’m not doing very well. :-( Good luck with the reading. 52 books in 52 weeks is a WONDERFUL amount of reading!
