I've bumped up my numbers by re-reading all the Little House (Laura Ingalls Wilder) books.
But I haven't been reading much the last two years and my annual count is still unusually low, at 17, even with those nine short books. (Not as bad as the 15 books for 2019, after 73 books in 2018. My best year was 147 books in 2016.)
I had some personal upheaval in 2019 that affected my reading, which was not helped by the pandemic of 2020, but I'm finally getting back on track. I am reading more, in general, these past couple of months, although they are mostly shorter books that are light and quick to finish. (Normally I work on one big book and read many less challenging books at the same time, but I spent most of 2019 and half of 2020 reading only the serious book. It appears that I'm taking a break from that, since I haven't been able to settle on what that next book will be.)
Maybe I'll make my (embarrassingly low) Goodreads goal of 24 books this year!
