Happy New Year Everyone! I hope you all had a fantastic holiday season and are ready to take 2020 by storm! I always love the fresh feeling that comes with the new year and I am ready to set some new goals for myself and for Reading in the Wings.
Goodreads Challenge- Read 100 books. This was my book goal for last year as well, and I, unfortunately, didn’t quite get there. I definitely could have read more than I did, but I was also living up tour life and trying to experience it all to the fullest. Now that I am back in the city for the foreseeable future, I should be able to carve out more time to read. So, we’re aiming for 100 books again.
Be more mindful with my posts. I was starting to feel a little bit of blogging burn out towards the end of 2019. I wasn’t feeling very inspired and I was just trying to get posts out on schedule, which didn’t always make for the best content. I also want to get more variety and dig into my creativity in the types of things I am posting. I still want to stick to my schedule, but put more effort and thought into each one of my posts. If I don’t feel like I can do that, maybe wait to post until I can. I want to get more quality than quantity.
Get my Netgalley feedback up to 80%. I’ve been so much better about giving my feedback on Netgalley, and have raised my feedback ratio up to 68%. I know that I can get it up to 80% this year.
Be more active on my bookstagram. I love bookstagram. It is such an awesome platform, I’ve managed to connect with so many cool people, and people are so creative with their photos. It is really inspiring. I want to be more active in the bookstagram community and on my account @readinginthewings.
What are your goals for this year? I’d love to hear what y’all are working on! Let me know in the comments ❤

Mia, Laney, Betts, and Ginger, best friends since law school, have reunited for a long weekend as Betts awaits Senate confirmation of her appointment to the Supreme Court. Nicknamed “the Ms. Bradwells” during their first class at the University of Michigan Law School in 1979—when only three women had ever served full Senate terms and none had been appointed to the Court—the four have supported one another through life’s challenges: marriages and divorces, births and deaths, career setbacks and triumphs large and small. Betts was, and still is, the Funny One. Ginger, the Rebel. Laney, the Good Girl. And Mia, the Savant. 
If you could be friends with any of the characters you have played, who would it be and why?
