I set a goal in 2020 to read 20 books. Unfortunately, I came up shy of that goal. So, in 2021, I decided to try again, but this time, I’m forcing myself to read the books I already have before I can buy or borrow any new ones. Halfway through the year, I’m on track to hit my 20 book goal!

I set a goal in 2020 to read 20 books. Unfortunately, I came up shy of that goal. So, in 2021, I decided to try again, but this time, I’m forcing myself to read the books I already have before I can buy or borrow any new ones. One quarter into the year, and I’m on track to hit my 20 book goal - AND clear off my book list!

My goal this year was to read 20 books in 2020... In all honesty, it's a good year if I read 5 books, so 20 was a long shot. So, did I hit my goal? Not quite… but I’m so dang happy with the progress I made this year! I alternated (for the most part) between fiction + nonfiction, but my heart will always belong to nonfiction // personal development books. Check out my entire list of my 2020 reads, as well as my top 3 recommendations for both fiction + nonfiction…

At the beginning of the year, I made a list of 20 intentions for 2020, and honestly, I haven’t even looked at it since the pandemic started. #fail But, the one thing I HAVE been intentional about so far this year is reading. My goal this year is to read 20 books, alternating between fiction and nonfiction books. And I’m happy to report that I’m making some really good progress! Check out what I’ve read so far this year - and my top recommendations for both fiction and nonfiction!
