Pages Per Day // January

In our previous blog post I quickly mentioned some goals regarding page totals etc and wanted to explain a little more before sharing this new series of posts.
Originally, the only goal we had when it came to reading was the aim of reading at least 3 books per month on average. Then I thought about the fact some of the books on my TBR could be 600 pages, while another could be 200...therefore if I read three 200 pages books or one 600 page one would mean I met my total book goal but not the other despite it being the same 'amount of reading' technically. Does that make sense? Haha.
Anyway, at the end of December I decided to track January's daily pages read...

Days 1 - 7 = 104

Days 8 - 14 = 155

Days 15 - 21 = 250

Days 22 - 28 = 194

Days 29 - 31 = 107

Monthly total = 810

Considering the turbulent month we all had, an overall total of 810 isn't completely shabby. I finished 4 books which proves my point about shorter books eh? Mr H did manage to track his pages last month but this month his TBR is two books seeing as one is approximately 1000 pages long! 

Over my three TBR's I've 1008 pages to read and I'm hoping I can push myself to up my daily page totals to at least meet, if not surpass that goal.

We'll check back in next month with hopefully both of our February's pages per day tracked!

January TBR Lists

Would you believe I'm writing this post on the 7th on December? Well I am! haha but by the time this goes up it's a new year and that means a re-fresh of the Goodreads goal! We'll have a post all about that itself soon, but for now we're going to stick to the 'to be read'.
Just like last year we're going to have a list of 3 books per month each and choose one of those for each other. However the new thing this year is our TBR jar (another post that will also be coming soon will explain it further) so that is helping us to choose books we may be otherwise procrastinate on picking up. Here is what we have to read this month!

Mr Hallow

Alice in Wonderland Book of the Film by Tui Sutherland (TBR Jar Pick)

Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C S Lewis

Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman (Mrs H's Pick)

Mrs Hallow

Frankenstein by Mary Shelly (TBR Jar Pick)

Poor Unfortunate Soul by Serena Valentino

Artemis Fowl: Arctic Incident by Eoin Colfer (Mr H's Pick)

After really working hard at the end of last year to get better with our reading, we're looking forward to more reading and more book collecting in 2020!
