During Chinese New Year there was a little opportunity that let me push myself to set a longer reading list than usual.
A Little Opportunity
After the New Year I saw this picture in my Moments:
“One like, one book. Finish them all in one year.”
That’s great—so I also posted this status:
Great, this year I have to read 73 books.
How is that even possible!
My Reading List
Actually it’s not impossible.
For example, counting Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils as eight separate parts…
After all, without small steps you can’t reach a thousand miles.
