I previously mentioned that a colleague of mine read a whopping 85 books in one year. After hearing that, I felt all inspired and set myself the task of reading at least 25 books this year. That’s an average of 2 books a month depending on the size and how I invest my time. I’m a bit behind as I’m only on my second book of the year and it's the end of February already (side-eye).
I’ve just started to read ‘A Thousand Splendid Suns’ as I’ve heard rave reviews. The story focuses on two Afghan women and how their lives cross each other. I guess I should have read the debut ‘The Kite Runner’ first but oh well. I’ve become so serious about my reading task that I’ve started to switch my phone off to and from work, so that no one disturbs me.

This book is very heart-wrenching. Its not a sequel to the Kite Runner so you don't have to worry about not having already read that.
I think I may just have to take up your challenge and stimulate my mind with literature again.
That challenge is such a good idea! I think I might follow you on that one.
The Kite Runner is such a beautiful book, I read it in 3 days and absolutely adored it!
Can't wait to see what you'll read next.
