Reading
I made it a goal in 1985 to read one book a week.
Generally I have managed to stick to that goal for the most part.
Some years I couldn't get as much reading done as I wanted to.
My GoodReads list shows that I have a smidgen under 3,500 books that I have read.
And there are at least 300 books on my GoodReads list I have yet to tackle.
So much to read. So slow a reader.
Due to dyslexia I am not a particularly fast reader.
I plod through books at a pedestrian pace. I am jealous of people who can read quickly and I have no clue how people are able to speed read and retain all that information.
It's only dogged persistence that lets me get through a book some days.
