It's too much pressure that is self imposed.

Although I'll admit, Book Bingo does inspire me to read out of my normal comfort zone.Jeannie Gray Knitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491806030465386877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-87464562352801927192018-05-16T11:26:11.350-04:002018-05-16T11:26:11.350-04:00Your Match-and-Move is just lovely.

I really like that color combination, and I can't wait to watch it grown. :-)<br />I listened to the first Vera Stanhope while removing wallpaper in/painting my dining room. I really enjoyed it -- it was so much more than a "police procedural;" I really appreciated the character development. I just finished the second in the series yesterday. Perfect reading after a couple of more "heavy" reads!

I set my goodreads goals low on purpose, and I don't participate in Book Bingo. I like to read what I like without any outside or inside pressures. I admire all of you who set those goals, but it's not for me. I noticed on goodreads that you have acquired the new Michael Pollen book. Me, too! Although I don't know how quickly I will get to it since once again, all my requests at the library have come in at the same time. No knitting lately, just chores. Hope things are going well, and your match and move looks great!becksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147945810663254093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-39712948687476802992018-05-16T10:17:53.792-04:002018-05-16T10:17:53.792-04:00Oh and I love your Match and Move!

I don't want to feel pressured to cover the card. I am a fast reader and always thinking ahead to what I want to read next. I would like to slow down a bit and be more relaxed about my reading. I haven't done much knitting this week, I'll pick up the needles again soon! Your Match & Move is looking good!Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00305099786659577370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-10225321395436577702018-05-16T09:47:34.569-04:002018-05-16T09:47:34.569-04:00Good progress on Match & Move.

Last year Book Bingo almost made reading a chore for me and I don't want to feel that way. I am keeping a list of what I've read this year (and my ratings) just for fun. I'm curious to see what and how much (or little?) I do read in a given year.Verahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13189170045283685051noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-8944301652990961532018-05-16T08:33:34.929-04:002018-05-16T08:33:34.929-04:00I like your book bingo plans, and I spent some tim...I like your book bingo plans, and I spent some time yesterday looking at my hold list at the library and what books I have on my want to read list and I was pleasantly surprised to find that many of them fit into a number of squares. The WIP/Cover one might be a challenge but I am hoping a book and a sock can match up at some point this summer! I love how your knitting matches that lovely quartz (??) top!
