by

The links below are to articles that look at the new rereading feature added to Goodreads – something which I also felt was a major missing feature for the platform. Great to see it added.

2017 Goodreads Reading Challenge

by

It is that time of year for starting the Goodreads Reading Challenge for 2017. Will you be taking part? I have set my challenge for 70 books in 2017 and I’m off to a good start having read my first book already. I tend to have the odd reading slump throughout a year and last year there was quite a long one of several months, which is really the only threat to my not reaching the target I have set myself – another prolonged slump (otherwise I may have set 100 as the target).
