2015 Reading Challenge

Hosted by Popsugar

As one of my book resolutions I am trying to be more organised with not just myself but with the structure of this blog too. One of the ways I want to be more organised is to set myself a challenge- yes a reading challenge! This one is from Popsugar (link above) and I liked the look of it and I've spotted other blogs I read taking part in it too! So I've noted down some suggestions of books I could read for each of the bullet points, some I may change but I will keep this updated throughout the year as to how I'm getting on providing a link on the top of my blog :-)
