So this year I read more books, more pages, more nonfiction, more male authors, more digital, and more from the library. My 2016 goals were to read more books and more female non-fiction—which I accomplished. Even better, I read 6 more books overall than last year, and 20 more books from the library.
Here's a quick look at the numbers:
- Total Books: 50
- Total Pages: 18,944
- Format: 18 Print / 32 Digital
- Genre: 22 Fiction / 28 Non-Fiction
- Author Gender: 15 Female / 35 Male
- Library Use: 27 Library Digital
My goal for 2017 will be to read more fiction in general, get back to reading more print, and read more female nonfiction (again, my shortest list this year).
