January 3rd: 2018 Reading Resolutions
-- Self explanatory. Let us know 5 of your reading goals for the year.
1. Read 165 books!
I met and surpassed by 150 book 2017 Reading Goal, so I've upped my Reading Goal this year to 165. I hope to up it by 5-10 books until I reach 200. Not sure I'll ever get above 200, but that seems like a good number to slowly work up to.
2. Start reading Marvel and DC comics and Graphic novels.
Unlike most people, I missed out on reading comics as a kid, so I am quite behind on all the Marvel and DC comics. As a fan of the DC movies/shows, and a HUGE fan of the Marvel movies/shows, I've been wanting to delve into the lore and literature and get all those easter eggs I always see in the movies and shows but never understand.
3. Finish books started in 2017
I had a lot of books that I started last year but put down and never picked back up. I want to get back to those this year... I hate for them to start piling up.
4. Diversify
I really want to diversify the type of books I read. I want to read more genres I don't normally give much attention to... like suspense and mystery. And I want to read more books with LGBT characters and characters of color, as well as books that may not be popular here in the states. I think there's probably a wealth of good books that blow up in other other countries that may not necessarily get the best press here.
5. Catch up on popular authors.
Among so many other things, I am also behind on some of the most popular series around. I've never read any George RR Martin, Marissa Meyer, Sarah J Maas, Phillip Pullman, Charlaine Harris, Tahera Mafi, Ally Condie, Rainbow Rowell, David Leviathan, and many, many others. I feel like I'm missing out on all of these great stories!!
