If you love Goodreads as much as all the book lovers out there, you’re probably taking part in their annual reading challenge. As the end of the year slowly approaches, you probably have many more books left to read before completing your goal, and we’re here to help you reach the magical number you set for yourself.
Focus on Your Interests
If you’re struggling to complete your reading challenge because you’re only reading the books that you “should” read, it’s time to start focusing on books that you want to read. Shift your attention to books that you’re actually in the mood for, and you’ll have an easier time finishing them up in time.
Explore Shorter Books
Books of different lengths count equally toward your reading goal, and you should explore shorter ones if you’re far behind. From Ernest Hemingway’s The Old Man and the Sea to George Orwell’s Animal Farm, many beloved classics come with a low page count and now’s a better time than ever to tick them off your list.
Poetry & Short Stories
Poetry books and short stories can be read in a relatively short period of time. They’ll help you reach your reading goal with ease, while also helping you expand your literary horizons and introducing you to genres you wouldn’t have considered otherwise.
