✨📚✨Hey Niece…what ancestor did you channel at the beginning. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 I screamed. You are looking just like your Mama, gorgeous & melanin popping!!! Hugs, much love and Happy New Year!!!✨📚✨
This year I only read about 5 books and I got back into reading these last few months. My reading goal for the new year is 2 books a month. I’m a student and I have a heavy reading load this coming semester so I’m going to count the books I read in class as a part of my book goal. I’m also setting my reading goal kinda low because I want to venture back into my other hobbies (crochet, dance) and find new ones (knitting, embroidery). I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season. Have a blessed new year! ❤️
People should never judge people's reading. And girl I am married and I read a lot. Sometimes you need those books to deal with these men. And staying in the house is peace. I don't know why people want to be in those streets. You is kind, you is smart and you is important.
BrooklynBelle recommended that I checkout your channel and I am glad that she did. I loved this video. Like you, I don't go anywhere so I read a lot. My kids are grown so I have more time to read. Last year I set my goal at 52 books and I read 120. This year, 2024, I set my goal to 60 but I may change that to 72 in a couple of months, want to see how the first two months of the year go.
So thank you for the encouragement! I’m going to give audiobooks a try again, I just need the narrator to have a voice that doesn’t give me the ick😂. I also want to join a book club or at least have a book friend that I can read and discuss books with.
One of my reading goals is to listen to all of Beverly Jenkins books especially when I’m driving. So far I’ve listened to all of her books in her Blessings series (11) from October - December. Now I’m going to start on her historical romances and the first will be Vivid.
Whoosh! You got us all the way together with the intro! Congrats on your reading goals you got this! But I low-key have 10-20 books set as my goal cuz I like to rise above my goals lol. How'd you like the water dancer? I peeped the cover in the corner 👀
Like minds! Octavia Butler's backlog is the top of my list as well. Almost done with her Patternist series, looking forward to Liliths Brood and Fledgling.
So the motivation you gave me! I’m going to try audiobooks again, I can’t deal with certain narrators voices though😬. Im narrowing down if I want to try and find a book club or just a book friend to read with and discuss books I like. I love reading on my kindle and iPad.
I usually have two books on the go at a time. I read a real book and an ebook. I started back reading in the spring and have read almost 50 books this year. I'm setting 50 as an official goal on Goodreads with the idea that I can probably hit 70. I knit so will probably add a few more audiobooks into that mix to replace UA-cam.
Great video! My goal this year was to read 20 books and I've read 27. Next year I'm still gonna keep my goal at 20 cause I just feel like that's a good number for me. I'm also going to be buying no more books with the exception of books for a book club I'm a part of because I have too many books.
I be reading a book and then I move on to the next .. should I be keeping track of how many I’m reading and what books I’ve read in what year ? Hmm I’m asking the family and also asking myself 🤔🧐
I just love your personality ❤❤
Thankyou

Thanks for inspiring me to get back into reading every day again, Shelbey. All my best to you for 2024!
You're so welcome! Happy New Year

I looove this goal. You are gonna have a time
Also, PLEASE with the iPad vs kindle video!!
Let me get on in here and have a sit.
Thanks for the reading goal tip for reading apps of 1! It makes me anxious when I have 40 books left and it is October😂😂. I am definitely doing 1 now
You're so welcome!

How'd you like the water dancer? I peeped the cover in the corner 👀
I enjoyed it. Plan to read it again this year
@@shelbeyandthebookclub Nice me too! I found it very poetic and well written I could imagine the autumn countryside. Maybe I should reread it too
Like minds! Octavia Butler's backlog is the top of my list as well. Almost done with her Patternist series, looking forward to Liliths Brood and Fledgling.
Hope you enjoy it! Her work is so good

You can do it! I’m so glad I could motivate you ♥️
I read 42 books this year. I’ve never been so proud of my progress.
Next year i’m going for 60 books.
Can we get a bookshelf tour please.
You’ve got this!
That book shelf is a mess friend 😩😩😩

You got a good plan going friend
@@shelbeyandthebookclub I used to read a ton. It feels good to have my nose in books again. 📚

Sounds great!
Liked commented and subscribed🙂
Thanks for subbing!
Would love to see the iPad vs kindle video!
Maybe later in 2024!
Would love to know where you got your frames. They are so pretty
Thank you Zeelool. I just don’t remember the name of the style.
I be reading a book and then I move on to the next .. should I be keeping track of how many I’m reading and what books I’ve read in what year ? Hmm I’m asking the family and also asking myself 🤔🧐
I think it’s a good idea to keep track
My goal for 2024 is 250 with an emphasis on reading some non-fiction (possibly 12 since it usually drags or makes me angry) and high fantasy.
Try ‘How To Say Babylon’ ‘When Crack Was King’ also search for literary nonfiction.
@@shelbeyandthebookclub thank you. I definitely will
@@taccora you’re welcome
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Trying to figure out where you've been all year for me... subscribed just based off the first 30 seconds. Is it too soon to say I love you??😂😂😂
😂😂😂. Welcome friend
You look like another UA-camr who goes by the name Demididit. Y'all could be related.
lol I do not look like that lady. i know you mean well but please stop doing this.
