JayneCM's BFBs for 2024

I am hoping to read more BFBs this year, as I need to up my non fiction reading game. I have some biggies planned - now I just have to read them!

>1 JayneCM:, Hi Jayne, i am not setting a target this year but i do want to get into double figures after a poor year in 23.

>2 johnsimpson: I agree, I am planning to concentrate more on the reading and less on ticking boxes this year.

It is already 1st January in Australia and I have finally started War and Peace. I have joined numerous readalongs over the years but have never managed to get to it. 2024 is the year! It is only 40 pages per day to finish by 31st January, which broken down like that sounds quite achievable.

Ambitious start for the year! Good luck!

>4 JayneCM: Good luck and happy New Year, Jayne!

Happy New Year Jayne and good luck with your reading, War and Peace is a challenge and you can do it!

Thank you all! So far (4th January here) I am on track with War and Peace.
