#683: 2/365 My 2015 Reading Challenge

Membaca itu bikin gua seakan penuh inspirasi. (((((seakan))))) hahaha...

Maksud gua, gini... Memang, sih, am not an avid reader. Gua suka baca, tentu. Tapi seringnya, ya "sekadar" baca aja. Beli buku juga bisa dibilang sering --apalagi kalo liat sampul bukunya yang lucu-lucu, hihihi. Tapi masih banyak, tuh, buku yang belom gua baca XD.

Okay. Ulang. Am not an avid reader. Tapi kalo kelamaan ga baca buku, gua kok, jadi asa mandek gitu. Hidup teh asa ga ada inspirasi. Padahal setiap hari ge gua mah pasti baca temlen twitter *takol. Tapi memang beda, ya, rasanya. Dulu pas jaman-jamannya gua rajin baca buku (apalagi waktu nemu goodreads), gua asa lebih gampang nulis. Nemu kosa kata itu asa gampang. Begitu jarang baca buku, nemu kosa kata yang pas untuk dipake dalam kalimat aja meniiii susyah. Asa ga ada inspirasi :D.

Nah. Makanya, taun ini gua pengen banyak baca lagi. Pengennya sih, ga sekadar baca. Sekali-sekali bikin review-nya, gitu. Tapi ga janji, deh. Hahaha.

Reading challenge yang gua ikutin, yang dari goodreads aja. Kita sendiri yang nentuin berapa banyak buku yang pengen kita baca taun 2015 ini. Gua nge-set 12 buku aja dulu. Artinya, tiap bulan, 1 buku harus kelar dibaca. Kalo udah mau deket-deket 12 buku, tambo ciek! Hihihi. Ya karena emang bisa kita ganti target buku yang kita baca.

Etapi, kemaren gua nemu reading challenge juga di pinterest. Ultimate reading challenge, cenah. Karena banyak, dan ditentuin pula buku kayak apa yang harus kita baca. Gua mau ikutan itu juga. Dengan catatan, jangan ngoyo :)). Ini, gua kasi liat daftarnya.

Banyak, kan? Dan rempong, kan? X))

Tapi mari gua coba, dah.

Progresnya bakal gua tulis di sini, di postingan #683 ini. Tautannya gua taro di sidebar, di bagian "the books". (biar gua gampang nyarinya, hihihi)

Let's do this!

*gaya*

Edit to add:
31-12-2015
Hari terakhir 2015.
Dan tantangan ini bisa gua kerjakan 17/50 saja, hahaha...
Etapi, sebenernya gua baca 36 buku di taun 2015.
Yasud lah ya. Taun 2016, gua mau baca 52 buku.
Wish me luck! :D
