My goal was to read 60 books this year, but I read 80! This was my best reading year since I started tracking my books. You can follow along with my reading on Goodreads. I’m Sarah Parsons and my picture is me in a yellow striped top sitting on my parents’ glider with green cushions, reading of course.
