I also need to complete some YA series I still have on the back-burner (Lunar Chronicles) and need to start some, too (Vampire Academy).<br /><br />I'm currently reading an adult book, The Martian, and it's totally awesome! If you can keep up with the science jargon, then it's way fun to read. Star Trek fans should have no problem, but I don't know about other people.Cathy Keatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18356112948372149785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-33230967392080256412016-01-06T14:48:31.071-07:002016-01-06T14:48:31.071-07:00You too!

Hope it goes well for you. <br /><br />I resolved to learn to say no about 20 years ago and I'm afraid I got way too good at it. LOL <br /><br />As to vacations . . . I feel you. I usually get one nice vacation and a few family visits, but waiting for that big vacation I can get a little crazy. Sometimes you just need to get away. If you can't get husband to go with you, maybe you could do some brief trips with friends? I've done a couple buddy trips and I honestly like them better than regular vacations. Husbands are bossy!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-36507716505483149572016-01-05T20:42:51.781-07:002016-01-05T20:42:51.781-07:00Great resolutions!

It's easy to get sucked into a comfortable pattern- reading only one genre, or target audience. I can't wait to see what you'll be reading in February!<br /><br />Yes to Odd and Vampire Academy! Daughter of Smoke and Bone is one of my favorite series too- the writing is gorgeous, and I love, love, love the audiobook narrations done by Khristing Hvam. I need to read The Grisha series too- it's definitely on my Must Read in 2016 list. ;) Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7530705972708152378.post-38952522262289600692016-01-05T16:22:57.453-07:002016-01-05T16:22:57.453-07:00Yeah, YA is awesome and all but adult is just...de...Yeah, YA is awesome and all but adult is just...deeper.

Hope you get to finish the series you want to! I recently reread Vampire Academy because I got the boxset for Christmas and it was kind of nostalgic. And good luck with your personal goals too, and your reading challenge! Liz.
