I've always been an avid reader, but when I developed M.E a couple of years ago I found reading incredibly difficult. This year though, I started feeling well enough to read again! :h So this year, my best friend and I decided to challenge ourselves to read 50 books in a year.
And We Both Did It!

Are you on Goodreads.com? I'm using it to keep track of the books I read. This year I'm planning on reading all of the classics I never got around to reading when I was younger. Starting with Wuthering Heights!
