What are your reading goals for 2021?
–Read 75 books.: This is my lowest reading goal in YEARS. But with new baby coming, I don’t know how things are going to go. I’m hoping to still get by on audiobooks, but if I do solely audio, that means I’m losing my review books.
–Find a healthy balance to read with new baby. : I want to read while he’s sleeping, but I also know I will have to sleep while he does. I have to find a balance that I’m sure I won’t figure out until he gets here!
–Be more vocal!: I’ve been recc-ing Diverse Books for SO LONG, but I often feel like I’m not heard. Like I rec them to people IRL, I recc them to people via the blog, and I buy them for work, and one of the things I do for work is make sure they’ve been seen or heard about to the librarians across my library system. But in the blogger world, I feel like no one hears me. I think its because I’m old school and of course use Instagram and Twitter, but not Reels or BookTok, and I’m hardly on anymore. This year I want to try doing it more. Especially while I’m out on maternity leave. (It could also just be society that’s not listening, but who knows)
–Be more creative: This kind of stems off what I said in the last goal. I have been trying to do more, but its hard to be creative right now when I can barely concentrate on my book for more than a few sentences.
