reading challenge 2017 - ???

I’m not sure how long this is going to take me, but I’m determined to read every last book on my book shelf!
 
In the last ten years I’ve switched to reading on my Kindle, so I haven’t bought a lot of hard copy books in a while.

This last bookcase represents all of the books my husband wanted to keep and all of the books that I bought but never read.
 
Don’t get me wrong, I read A LOT lol. I just tend to read sci-fi/fantasy and YA. But I’ve been wanting to broaden my horizons for a while. Plus, my husband is always a trooper and reads my favorite books, so it’s time to return the favor! I can’t wait to read some of his favorites as well!
 
I have no idea how long this is going to take me, there’s over three hundred books here. The second row consists of entirely of graphic novels, which I’m really excited about! (I’ve been eyeing those for years!)

The first book on shelf number one is Watership Down by Richard Adams. My husband always talks about how much he loves this book, so I’m going to delve in!
