“I read, I travelled, I became.”

Target 2016: Read one book a week (52 books)
Achieved: 55

2016 had been an amazing year for my reading. I managed to read more than one book a week 😀
I tried to read new authors, new genres, and even picked a few favorites along the way.
Here’s hoping 2017 will be even better!
