2025 Reading Goal

My goal was 35 books.

But as the year progressed and life happened I just kept getting lost in a book.

I love romance, specifically written but black authors. #2025bookgoals #2025reading

Unfortunately, I didn’t meet my reading goal, but that is okay because I read 13 more than last year. I’m super proud of myself. I’m proud of how far I’ve come with my reading. For 2026 I decided to set my goal at only 22. I don’t want to overwhelm myself. This is a goal I know I can achieve.

2025 READING GOAL
My main reading goals for 2025 are to finish the Proverbs 31 devotional I started this year, and to read the whole Bible chronologically. What are you currently reading? What are your reading goals for 2025? Remember, don’t overwhelm yourself! Start small and conquer attainable goals. 💛
