Some stats about my reading in 2021 (that may be of interest only to me):
- Total Books Read: 84
- Hardcover: 42
- Kindle: 32
- Paperback: 6
- Audio: 3
- Nonfiction: 45
- Fiction: 38
- Longest book: 751 pages
- Shortest book: 12 pages
In later posts I will outline my favorite book in fiction and non, but what jumped out at me is that I haven’t really landed on a a genre or style that I really enjoy. Despite reading close to 40 works of fiction, I didn’t read a lot of books that I would heartily recommend, books that I loved. Feels like I am in a bit of a funk; not finding a lot of “You have to read this!” Type books.
The other thing that I find interesting with using Goodreads, is that I have a tendency to overrate books; giving 4 stars when looking back I don’t feel like I “really” enjoyed it. There is such a fine line between enjoying a book and really liking it. At least it seems that way to me. My campaign to bring half stars to Goodreads continues.
