Reading 2021 Goals and Posts

We made it! 2021! I'm actually a little scared to type those words. Like somehow 2020 is still going to show up and take over this year too. Here's to a new year and fresh start!

For 2021, one of my goals was to start and publish this blog. Check! First day of 2021, and I already have success with one of my resolutions! I should probably quit while I'm ahead, but no, not me. Let's keep this year going and see what else I can do.

One really good thing about 2020 (I've typed that year again. Is it like Beetlejuice where I say or type it 3 times, and it suddenly appears?) is the amount of reading I did. With the pandemic, my family didn't really do a whole lot during that year that shall not be named. For me, this meant an increased amount of reading time. Yay! My only regret is not recording the reading so I could see what I read and how many books I read. 

Learning from my mistakes, my goal this year is to record what I read and give a quick description/review about each book. I'm going to also remain honest about what I'm reading and not just record books that make me sound smart or give a good impression. I truly believe that most books have a purpose and reason. I hope to be honest about what I'm reading and why I'm reading each book.

For this year, I plan to have an e-book (Kindle) and an actually hard copy book that I'm reading at all times. I will admitt that I tend to read more e-books, but I've noticed recently that I miss books and the experience of holding and reading them. I'll record on the blog what books I am reading, when I start them, and why I chose them. I will then come back to write a reveiw post when I'm done. Hopefully I'll also sprinkle this blog with posts about my reading thoughts, habits, and some coffee recommendations.

Feel free to share thoughts, comments, and book recommendations. Tomorrow I'll share the two books I'm starting my year with and why.

Here's to 2021 and a new reading journey!

Review of "Talk Bookish to Me" by Kate Bromley

  Review: I found this book in the new section of my local library, and I thought the cover was so cute. Not going to lie, but I definitely ...
