This year my resolution was to read 100 books. While I didn’t quite reach this, I’m very proud to share with you all the 76 books that I did read.
I tried to alternate between Non-fiction and Fiction books and throwing in a few poetry books in between. I actually really got into poetry for the first time this year. plus the small books really helped make up the numbers quickly. in case you were wonder, I classified a book as anything that has both a front and back cover, not matter how big or small (not including manuals because why the heck would you read a manual?).
Anyway, hope you see something to add to your 2020 reading list. let me know is you read any of these books this year in the comments, and what you thought of them.
