Top Ten Tuesday-Reading goals I still need to work toward

Happy Tuesday, my bookish friends!! I hope you all are doing well. Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is Reading Goals I Still Want to Accomplish Before the End of the Year (We’ve just begun the last quarter of the year! What bookish goals would you still like to accomplish? If you participated in TTT’s Bookish Goals for 2023 topic this past January, update us on which goals you’ve achieved, which you’ve given up on, and which ones you’re still working on!) I did do this post back in January, so it makes it easy to remember my goals, so let's see how I am doing! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today.

Stacking the Shelves #89, Sunday Post #86, Sunday Salon #80

Hey bookish friends! How are you all doing? Any plans for the weekend? I am in Pennsylvania for the weekend for a ladies retreat with some women from my church! I got here yesterday and went to a Cain, Katy Nicole, and David Leonard concert last night. It was fabulous!! I am worn out though, LOL! Today we are supposed to do a prayer walk/journaling activity this morning, go plant a succulent garden this afternoon, followed by an evening of relaxing. We head home tomorrow.
