I ended up reading 22 of my ‘Original List’.
Hmm, 50% of my list. That’s kind of disappointing. However, I did learn a lot.
I learned that just because it’s on the list, doesn’t mean I will read them. Some of the books on there hold no interest. So I ditched them.
Did I mention I also had 2 unfinished/gave-up books? No? Well, they were:
- H is for Hawk
Seriously I tried, but I just could not get into it. - Paradise Taken
Wow, this was so poorly written my 10-year-old could do a better job. I gave up after 10 pages.
Taking into account the lessons I learned from my reading list, I will tackle my reading agenda for 2020 differently.
Stay tuned for my 2020 reading directory.
