My GoodReads goal was 130 which I didn’t quite manage to get to but I’m not feeling to bad about, I had a bit of a book slump midway through the year and December wasn’t a great month for reading so I’m not shocked at all that I didn’t meet this goal.
Social Media
Best Nine Images on Instagram:
I feel like I’ve definitely improved my Instagram game over the last year, I don’t think I got anywhere near that amount of likes in 2017. I’d look at Twitter and Facebook stats but I know that I have neglected those accounts lately. Insta just feels a lot easier to manage. I’m really going to have to put more effort in here.
Whats Next?
I don’t think there are any big changes on the horizon, I like the design I have now and the weekly posts I’ve just started to participate in are super fun, particularly Cinema Sunday, getting to post about movies is something I’ve been wanting to do for awhile so it’s really great that I’m getting to do this now.
I have a few reading challenges that I want to take part in in 2019 which I’ll be posting more about in a future post. Plus a new weekly photo challenge that will mainly be happening on Instagram. (if your not already following me there, here’s a link)
Finally my big aim this year is to post consistently and take scheduled breaks instead of just going AWOL.
Here’s to a fantastic 2019, hope you all have fab one!
