Have you tried Story Graph yet? 😍 it’s like good reads but MUCH better. You can do 1/2 stars and it makes graphs of the types of books you have read. Best of all you can import your goodreads info so you don’t lose any info. ♥️

[@danylyn38]

My goal this year is 250 and I’m about to start book 17. I always start out strong since I have 2 months off but then I’ll slow down

[@theokiereader]

You should make a bird feeder out of the jam jars. That would be cute. That book sounds so good!! It would be a perfect rainy spring day read.

[@sunshinelorena]

Reckless girls sounds really good. I am aiming for 52 books so I am not putting too much pressure on myself to read lots and to enjoy the books more. I am focusing on learning Italian, specifically the grammer as my listening/reading is really good. I will be doing a B1 exam this year to be able to apply for Italian citizenship through my husband 😊

[@AnAntUnderTheRoof]

I was overwhelmed by all this christmas-new year atmosphere. It's finally gone. Today I cleaned my flat and now in The evening finally sat down with your vlog. I can guess that you are busy but I will be waiting for as many vlogs as possible : D they are my moment of chill I never read but I've started this book called normal people...it sounds like a book for teens but it totally engages me. I didnt have any resolutions but a change from 0 books to 30 would be nice. I make an Official resolution for 30 books now 😁 nothing that I share with others is successful but I need some declaration🤣.I need edit . I Do Read lol but not books which I want ...just articles and Stuff.....

[@YourTrueShelf]

I keep meaning to say, after watching your jam advent calendar over Xmas, I managed to find it on sale and I'm now enjoying the jams so much, so thanks! Reading goal - last year it was 80 books and I somehow read 97, so I've set 100... Don't want to feel pressured though, or like I can't pick up big books so we'll see. Moving your body more is a really good goal. Mine is to continue running 🏃🏼‍♀️

[@probablyhyperfixating]

My resolutions are to use what I have!!! Quit buying a cute notebook when I have 20 lol same for lotion, makeup, hair stuff, pens lol so many pens!!!!! Then every month I am doing something fun for me, besides reading. I had to put my cat down Dec 20th so didn't really have much Christmas spirit! January I'm watching 31 days of Christmas movies!!!! February I will be doing embroidery everyday. March will be jewelry making. April coloring in adult coloring books. Just stuff I already have but want to devote more time to!

This video has made my day🙆🏻‍♀️💛

Is BOM now available in the UK please Ciara ? Thank you x

[@khadiisam26]

Since last year I stopped setting reading goals because It makes me feel so pressured to read more without enjoying, since I stopped setting goals I've been reading more and enjoying the process as well 😊

[@theinstabookworm6428]

Great vlog. I miss the advent calendars though. XD

[@princessissii]

Loved the vlog and I’m happy that you started this year with a great read. Regarding your goal of learning German, I think it’s a great idea and also most likely not the easiest. If you like to practice your German I’m happy to help and I’m sure other viewers from Germany as well. ☺️☺️

[@ciarascorner]

Aww thank you so much!!☺️

[@hitchinaride94]

Yeah, definitely! I'm German and would be more than happy to help :). There are so many German books waiting for you ... by Goethe, Schiller, Hesse, Kästner, ... It is pretty hard, though, due to all the inflectional morphemes, a lot like Old English.

[@J_R186]

Absolutely! I'm from Germany too and I would be happy to help with the language as well. Learning a language is always fun!

[@noelkempster]

My reading goal is also 75 books (with like extra goals of trying to read at least 12 non fiction books to get more non fiction into my reading habits) and I also have goals for learning Spanish and doing more movement/ working out

[@johannasirkka349]

last year I read 71 books, so this year I'm hoping to read 75 books!

[@andreeastiopu1831]

I will definitely buy the book because I love Agatha Christie and I loved Lucy’s books! Thank you! 🤗

[@demonchildofwar]

I listed my reading goal as 20 because I’m just getting back into reading this last year or so but I’m hoping to surpass it. I love that you mention yoga because that’s something else I want to start doing again and most of all I want to start hoop dancing everyday again.

[@wordsofclover]

I have to say I'd really recommend The Beach book - I thought it was so much better than the movie! When you described the premise of The Reckless Girls, it immediately reminded me of The Beach too!

[@toddbelanger1923]

Elmo Eyes...Yahooooo...Always love your new video's... The best voice on book tube...just saying...hahaha.

[@notesfromjulia]

I‘m excited, my friend and I plan on buddy reading Reckless Girls, glad to hear you enjoyed it! My reading goal is 50 books and I also want to prioritize learning another language, for me it‘s Italian! (I’m German, so good luck with that, it’s a hard but also beautiful language, especially if you want to read classic German literature ♥️)

[@Netty_Noo]

My goals this year are to read 25 books alot less than last year , but am ramping it up in terms of size and content) And do a daily journal 📓 Also I am doing a 52 week money savings challenge for Christmas So far so good xx 😘 Love your channel And look forward to it every week Happy new year Ciara x Ps am visiting York in March cannot wait , can you recommend any cool places to see , frequent ? Cafes , restaurants, bookshops ? Xx many thanks

[@shelley8897]

So it's in the UK now is it? I didn't realise that

[@amandaclaudetteg]

You just inspired me to sign up for BOM again! I didn’t know how I would like Reckless Girls, but really wanted to sign up again because it’s such a good deal and fun subscription. I picked Reckless Girls, and I’m so excited!

[@MartinDSmith]

I wouldn't have any particular goals, though I have started well with my reading:a brilliant read called Admissions by Henry Marsh(autobiographical)and Persuasion by the one and only Jane Austen,to be followed swiftly by Northanger Abbey.😃

[@ciarascorner]

Ahh fabulous - those two Austen’s are also on my list!

[@grodriguez7225]

Yay a new video‼️You’re right all the 📚 look so beautiful‼️ Tea & Snacks 😋‼️ What lovely scenery‼️Even the coffee shop looks warm and inviting‼️ Ps: I finished The Last Bear by Hannah Gold it was so good‼️I also as of yesterday I finished rereading Harry Potter & The Order of The Phoenix, it was bittersweet‼️I’m halfway done with Anna K, which feels awesome, but then I can read the sequel some time next week‼️As for We Are Not Free; I got 5 chapters and 106 pages to go and it’s pretty intense‼️

[@ciarascorner]

☺️💕

[@nancyabbott2660]

My goal is 100… I did read 160 but I’m retired w more time to read. When I worked I never read even 75 books.

[@londyneczkaczyta]
