So, I was only at 15 hours, 30 minutes for the month of February. However, if I included the walking I do back and forth to my car every day for work, I would be at about 16 hours anyways. So, there you go. This is NOT cheating. (Haha)
I’m having second thoughts about this goal. First, I don’t have the energy or time to track every single book I read. For example, I’ve read probably five or six romance novels since I last posted on this, but I just don’t note them because I forget or I don’t have computer access or whatever. Plus, I’m wondering how good it is to track the books I read…is it some sort of ego trip?
