2017: The Year in Books
Jan. 3rd, 2018 08:43 am2017 was a long year with some books in it. I took on too many reading challenges and forgot about most of them. 2018 will be less ambitious and better organized (for a while). If you want to see a list of books I read, you'll find it under the cut.
( Check out that end-of-the-year depletion! )
bold: 99 Novels
italics: Mount TBR Challenge
I read and relinquished 77 books in fulfillment of the Mount TBR Challenge. That is 15 more than the number of books I bought, found on a free book shelf, or was given as gifts in 2017. Maybe this year I'll buy fewer books and use the library more! Maybe not, though. 2018 is the Year of Making No Promises.
126 fiction, 48 non-fiction, 18 other (mostly poetry), give or take some in the middle where I lost count.
A sluggish but well-meaning Reading Wednesday returns next week, when I'll tell you all about how delightful Circus Shoes was (though the eponymous shoes never showed up; they were metaphorical shoes I guess).
