So 2020 was a write-off, let's move on
While I had planned to do a quick re-cap of my goals from last year, I didn't finish any of them? So we'll pass on that, and go straight to my new reading goals for this year! If you would like to know about my last year's reading, here's my Year in Books, or check out my Review Index for the blog.
Goodreads Reading Challenge
A Book Buying Ban
Yep, I have zero willpower and I bought too many books last year that I haven't read, leaving me with a ridonkulous TBR pile, both physical and on my Kindle. So I'm going to try and enforce a book-buying ban on myself. I did cheat slightly by getting a 6-month Kindle Unlimited subscription while it was on sale before Christmas, so I'm hoping that will help with my distractible reading habits. Other than that I'm trying to focus on reading books I already have, or have been on my TBR forever, which brings me to my next goal;
TBR Cull posts every month
I'm planning to start a new thing where I go through my 'Want to Read' list on Goodreads, which is currently over 600 books, see what's there, and see what I can cut. I'm going to be ruthless and get rid of all those books that I'll probably never read, so that I can focus on the ones that I really do want to read.
Beat the Backlist Challenge
There's also a bingo challenge and I've already crossed off 6 boxes with the first book I read this year, Spellbreaker.
The A to Z Reading Challenge
I participated in this challenge last year as well, coming in with a total of 13 books - exactly half. I'm going to try and do better this year! This challenge has some mini-challenges throughout the year, and if you link up your reviews to this post you can go in the running to win a prize. Check it out if you're interested! Here are the books I plan to read for this challenge, of course the list may change as the year goes on and I get distracted.
