Books in 2020!

How many books read in 2020?

97 books

...Yes, this is the first time since (*checks records*) 2015 that I read fewer than 100 books in a year. I don’t even know exactly why this year had a drop-off; yes, 2020 was hard, but for me 2019 was way, way, way harder. I think partly it may be that I’ve been working on being less obsessive about, well, everything, so that seems to have managed to spill over into not being quite as absurd about my MUST READ ALL THESE BOOKS impulses. That’s my plan for 2021, in fact – to try to hardly be obsessive about it at all. :-)

(BTW, it was ADORABLE looking back at my end-of-year books post from 2015 and seeing that I was impressed with myself for having read a whole 79 books that year, and that I thought reading 6–7 books a month was a lot. Ha ha ha, awww. *laughs indulgently at my naïve baby self who had not yet become obsessive about expanding and tracking my reading*)


( lots of thoughts and books and recs! )
