I have the GoodReads app on my phone and it has the BEST feature! It has a barcode scan. I can scan any book barcode and it pulls up the book so I can read reviews, add it to my "to read" list, or whatever. I love this app. I use it A LOT. People ask me how I know about books and what I might want to read? I use this app every time I am in a library or store and I scan it real quick if it looks interesting enough and then I either add it or move on. This is how I "hear" about books and authors I might not otherwise. Today I went to Barnes & Noble and added 10 books to my "to read" list in a matter of minutes. I love this! I love that this is how I get introduced to new-to-me authors and books that I might not run across otherwise. How about you? What app do you love and are grateful for?
I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
