Hello!
This is the #12Months12Genres Challenge: a challenge that I have created for 2016, where I read one book each month of a specific genre. This challenge is for my personal enjoyments and growth, since I want to devote my time on a specific hobby with consistency: I am one of those people who tries different activities, gets really interested and good at it and then just forgets about it after a couple of months. Hence, this challenge will hopefully help me develop a good habitual hobby.
