Some great stuff here, but I‘m annoyed that Litsy didn‘t make it into any category! For shame!

catiewithac Great tips! 4y

MsMelissa My focus for 2021 is not on reading more books, but reading books that better align with my reading tastes. By number, I read more last year than ever before, but very few of those books left a lasting impression on me, so in that sense I don‘t think I had a great reading year. For 2021 I‘ve decided to choose books I know I‘m more apt to enjoy. So far, although my numbers are down, I‘m a much more satisfied reader. 4y

marleed Great article! 4y

marleed @Book_Fiend_Melissa I changed my 2021 reading goals, as well. I realized in being so focused on my nbr of books read, I failed to give each book the thought and consideration it deserved. So this year, is more about intention. 4y

MsMelissa @marleed I had the same issue. I got so caught up in chasing a number that, at times, I forgot all about why I read in the first place. 4y

Y‘all, I just removed the fb app from my phone. I‘m going to give it a go for a week. And try to read more. Garden. Spend time with the kiddo and his daddy. And maybe punch a reset on what the net is doing to my brain. Baby steps. Am keeping messenger for now. And Litsy. Undecided on Instagram - maybe for posting only?

Jebpix How did it go? 4y

GardenJess I made it four days. @Jebpix I am now attempting 3-4 days a week as the goal. The detox is definitely making my brain function differently. 4y

1. 2018 was a banner year (475 books) and this year I'm sitting at 99 so I'm abandoning reading goals for now!
2. It would be lovely to get a new job that makes better use of my skills.

#Two4Tuesday

TheSpineView 99 is awesome! Try to remember that we read for fun and not worry about goals. Hard sometimes, I know I fall victim to the pressure of reaching a goal too. 😊 5y

I‘ve been meaning to share with you all this lovely Facebook group I stumbled on a couple weeks ago!! 💜

While Litsy is still my favorite place online, Page Turners is a FB group that, so far, has very similar positive & kind community vibes. It‘s “closed” but easy to join, and I thought we all might enjoy an extra place for book-related solace— especially if we are expecting more maintenance here in our near future.

BookishMe Thanks for sharing this! I joined this group and have discovered some great reads. It's managed by blogger--author Amy Allen Clark. Lately I have not been following actively though - https://www.facebook.com/groups/758469254281752/ 7y

CoffeeNBooks Thanks for sharing! I just sent a request to join. I'm also in the Read It Forward facebook group. 7y

How To READ MORE | Martin Udogie

I recently came across this article and thought it would be great to discuss with other bookworms. Between Facebook,twitter,Snapchat, Instagram&now Litsy I do find myself consumed with social media, however I am not completely convinced that it gets between me and my reading time. How do other feels about this? What do you do to stay focused on reading? https://qz.com/895101/in-the-time-you-spend-on-social-media-each-year-you-could-...

leslieisreading There's a lot of things that I could do if I spent less time on social media. And reading is certainly one of them, but I still read 65 or so books last year so I feel okay. It's all about finding balance, and I certainly have gone too far with the social media habit at times and tried to pull back. Litsy is a new distraction, but I have actually been reading more since I joined. 8y

saresmoore If it wasn't for Litsy, I might have more reading time, but I definitely wouldn't read as many good and diverse books! But Litsy is my only social media, so I don't suppose I have a well-rounded perspective. 8y

WhatDeeReads I've cut back significantly on my social media usage in the last month or two. I enjoy reading. It is not something I want to use to create shame for myself or others. When I feel like reading, I read. When I feel like scrolling through Facebook or Twitter, then I do that. I'm quite pleased with the amount of books I read last year, so I don't see cause for alarm. 8y

See All 42 Comments

Reviewsbylola Sometimes I plug my phone into the charger so I won't look at it! 8y

InLibrisVeritas I read about 120 to 140 each year, and while reading more would nice I'm okay with it as is. I'm a mood reader so if I don't feel like reading there is no helping that, even if I don't spend that time on social media. 8y

MyNamesParadise I like to unwind while playing games on my iPad like bubble witch saga 3 and cookie jam and now with listening to playaways I can multitask! 8y

Hooked_on_books Litsy definitely cuts into my reading time! 😂 But it helps me find amazing new books and connect with fellow book lovers. I previously used Facebook but haven't been on it for 7-8 months because I found it so poisonous. I don't miss it at all but I know it can be useful. I think it's really about balance, as with anything else. 8y

Bookwormjillk I don't know. When I'm on social media it's because I'm on a loud train, or the TV is blasting, or I'm at a crowded sports practice for one of my kids. In other words I turn to social media when I can't read a book. 8y

RebeccasReading I think the hardest thing is trying to read an ebook without going to social media first! I swear, I get so distracted by the notifications on my phone that I read about half as fast. Real books are the best, followed by my old Kindle. 8y

Paty1 I am not that into social media so I don't feel I lose that much reading time. But I do waste a lot of time watching movies, tv shows and youtube videos and although I really enjoy it I have decided to cutdown on these to read more from now on. 8y

KellyK I have cut back on my FB time quiet a bit. Litsy has taken up some of that time but I've gone from reading 20-30 books a year to reading 70+ books a year. 8y

TheLibrarian Litsy is pretty much the only social media I do except a little bit of Facebook so I don't feel like it takes away from my reading. And without Litsy where would I get all these great book recommendations!! 8y

Gissy I'm not in social media either. When I am not reading is because I working, spending time with family. But I enjoy to watch tv series sometimes when I need some space and I enjoy watch book reviews or interviews. I don't like ebooks or anything like that. I love to have that book in my hands! What I really will like is to be a fast reader like all of you so I could read more books. 8y

arlenefinnigan I do worry that I 'waste' too much time on social media that I could spend reading but really I've found that the more time I spend on Litsy/Bookstagram/BookFace etc the more reading I do. The enthusiasm is infectious. 8y

LauraKath Social media honestly consumes me. I confess I have a problem. Sometimes I'm glad I have a job that keeps me away from my phone. And yes, it makes me waste precious reading time. 8y

queerbookreader I think the article has a very fair point, but there are different purposes for reading vs social media. Reading is individual & takes time; social media is for sharing, communicating, innovating, networking, and instant satisfaction. Where's the fun in reading if you can't share your love for it? How can you learn and innovate if you don't communicate and interact with others? 8y

queerbookreader So long story short idk how much social media actually takes away from reading bcz they serve different purposes (edited) 8y

8little_paws I am already really damn close to 200 books a year so maybe I could read 300 😁 8y

Lupita.Reads @leslieisreading I completely agree. I feel like I need to delete all social media apps but Litsy! I feel like it inspires me to read more and read out of my comfort zone! 8y

Lupita.Reads @saresmoore I'm with ya. Definitely considering deleting the other apps off my phone. 8y

Lupita.Reads @Lucky_LaDee I completely agree. I think shaming yourself into reading more only causes more reading slumps! 8y

Lupita.Reads @Reviewsbylola fantastic trick! I do the same and keep it in a separate room as well. 8y

Lupita.Reads @InLibrisVeritas 120/140 how awesome!!!! Last year I read 100 for the first time ever and it wasn't as time consuming or stressful as I thought it would be. Like you said I read when I felt like it and got lucky that so many reads kept me turning pages. 8y

Carbail It definitely distracts from reading, but I hope not that much! One of my reading goals for 2017 is to keep the devices in another room. It's hard!!! 8y

Lupita.Reads @MyNamesParadise that actually sounds awesome! I need to get into the audiobooks zone! 8y

Lupita.Reads @Hooked_on_books I definitely agree. Finding the right balance and being content with it is all that really matters. I love Litsy and definitely agree that it's time well spent connecting with other book worms! 8y

Lupita.Reads @Bookwormjillk that's a great way to think about keeping balance! 8y

Lupita.Reads @arlenefinnigan yes yes yes! Enthusiasm is super infectious! 8y

Lupita.Reads @Carbail that's a fantastic idea! I know it definitely helps me to keep devices in separate rooms while I'm reading :) 8y

Lupita.Reads @8little_paws 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 #goals #🙌🏾 amazing! 8y

Lupita.Reads @lemonlime799 I feel like you just killed it! *mic drop! Seriously you hit the nail on the head. In the end I think the key is balance and being content with how much you read without stressing yourself out about it. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts! 8y

Lupita.Reads @LauraKath I feel like that as well sometimes. But I think taking small steps like placing devices in a different room when reading or hanging with other folks really helps. 8y

Lupita.Reads @Gissy agreed! Grant me the gift of super reader so I can read 300 books in a year 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓😂❤📚 8y

Lupita.Reads @TheLibrarian I like you need my book recs! Litsy is the best! 8y

Redheadrambles Well I have thought a lot about this and I know that since actively reviewing and commenting on here and GRs I actually got through more books because of the joy of then talking about them. Sure in theory I could use that time to read but I possibly would do something else and not be so driven to get to the next book. 8y

MyNamesParadise @Lupita.Reads I also listen to nonfiction audiobook on cd in the car. I recently started. I'm in a celebrity memoir stage at this point! 8y

Lupita.Reads @Redheadrambles what's the use in reading an amazing book you can't rave about with other like minded ppl?! I'm with ya, I'd rather use my time raving about books I love! 8y

zsuzsanna_reads I don't think I'd read any more if I wasn't on social media. I need "mulling over" time as well as reading time. I already feel I am reading too much with about 120 books last year and could do better with reading less, more carefully. But then everyone is different. I work for home, so social life via Facebook is a must since there's no other office social cooler! 8y

Soubhiville Since Litsy came along I spend less time on FB, and I don't do any other social media. I do sometimes find myself lingering on here for longer than I meant to, but I feel like it's time well spent, connecting and learning about new books! 8y

Matilda I wish people could make their point without having to dump on other things. The point can be made that you can cut into SM & TV time if you want more reading time without calling them both "trash." 8y

booksandsympathy With everything going on right now politically, I am spending less time on Facebook. Litsy helps me feel a bit better. I don't check Instagram very often and I'm not on Twitter. But Facebook does distract me from reading. Then I start to feel guilty. 8y

Gissy @Lupita.Reads oh!! Impressed! Do you have social life? ☺️Well I have to admit that all of us are different, we prefer to read a book instead to do other things and always we carry our little friend (a book 😊) with us all the time 📚😍but I admire you! 300 books in one year! A lovely gift! 👍👏👏👏👏 8y

LeahBergen @Twocougs 👍🏼👍🏼 8y

LeahBergen @DeborahSmall I have the same name on Goodreads. Hmmm. I added a bunch of Litsy people when I joined the group through that link ☝️ Add me through that or I'll find you. 😀 8y

LeahBergen @bookishkris I have some ideas for the bingo, too. 👍🏼 8y

Minispok This looks great. 8y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen I've never done #ReadHarder! Maybe I'll have to try that, too ... just so I can crash and burn in the most spectacular way 😂😂 8y

LeahBergen @Theresa I'm going to try to do it all with books I already own (but they keep on trickling in somehow 😂) 8y

LeahBergen @Minispok I think it looks pretty doable! 👍🏼 8y

Cinfhen @LeahBergen as long as it's done with style & grace 😉👠👑😂 8y

Bookworm54 I don't know how to use goodreads 😔 haha. Did I see somewhere that there were several bingo cards? Can only see one in the group 8y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen Exactly! 😂 8y

LeahBergen @Bookworm54 It is all the same bingo card; only the squares are moved around. I'm not quite sure why I picked this one! 😂 Goodreads is easy to figure out; you can do as much or as little as you want on it. You can just join this Litsy Challenge group if you want and nothing else. 😀 8y

Bookworm54 I have a goodreads account... need to work out my login details. A job for the weekend! ☺️ I might set a challenge for number of books next year too. I mean I have to read at least 26 anyway now... 😂 8y

LeahBergen @Bookworm54 And I'll be working on my list this weekend! 😂 8y

Hobbinol These challenges look fun. I wish I weren't such a free spirit with my reading habits-- I like for one book to lead me to another if the adventure arises. I think that's why books stay on my TBR shelf forever! 8y

LeahBergen @Hobbinol Oh, I am SO that way myself. One read can set me off on a month-long tangent. I'm thinking that I will probably hit on most of these squares accidentally over the year! 😂 8y
