Your 'year of reading' from Goodreads has a different look this year.
Edit: 😆, it doesn't. It's the same at the website.

Joining in! Not bad considering I didn‘t read much until 2012 and have a severe recency bias.

Really surprised there were none by Maggie O‘Farrell or Lauren Groff or many other authors. Too many by Saunders and Ward. They‘re both fantastic authors, but I feel like they should‘ve chosen no more than one from each author for a wider variety. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤔

peaKnit I agree, was surprise by multiples of Ward. 5mo
LiteraryinPA I agree that a cap of one per author would have been better. 5mo
mdemanatee Was really surprised not to see Groff 5mo

BarbaraBB You didn‘t read much until 2012? I didn‘t know that! 5mo
BarbaraBB I agree with one book per author. Or one series like the Ferrante one, instead of multiple entries. 5mo
vivastory Chiming in that there should have been a limit of one per author to allow more space for others (edited) 5mo
Megabooks @BarbaraBB I did read some in my pre-vet school years, but with working 2 jobs, going to school, and having 1-2 volunteering things, I didn‘t have time for more than a book a week if that. It was about the same in vet school. I mostly read nonfiction, which still fits what I read more of in stressful years (like this one)! 🙃 5mo
BarbaraBB A book a week is still a lot. But I get what you say. I read less too during uni but for me that was in another century 🤣 5mo

I didn‘t keep track of the exact number, but I also have at least 10 more books from the NYT list sitting in my TBR shelves. Now I want to find and read them so I can re-do this checklist. 😄

Allbymyshelf Wow 30! 🙌 How did you make this graphic, it‘s super cool! 5mo
BarbaraBB @readmyeyes There‘s a free link today to the list and the graphic on https://modernmrsdarcy.com 5mo
Allbymyshelf ⬆️ I figured out the graphic is on the NYT site lol 🤪 5mo

Laughterhp I‘ve read 8 😬😬😬 5mo
Amiable @readmyeyes Yes! Thankfully the NYT did the graphic for me because there is no way I could do anything like that myself. 😄 5mo
kspenmoll Yay for you!🙌🏻 5mo
Amiable @kspenmoll It seems like an odd list. But every “best of” list is so subjective, anyway. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5mo

Thanks to the #Bookerprize, the #ToB and the #1001books list I‘ve read a lot of them yet I do think it‘s too America focused. I do love American fiction, but I‘d expected a more international list.

Amiable Good point! 5mo
TrishB Agreed! But well done. 5mo
Ruthiella Yup! So many I‘ve read because they were in a list or part of a challenge. 5mo

One of the four lectures I am doing here in Bandung, Indonesia. What a privilege to be able to travel to different parts of the world to talk about my favourite things. The effusive and warm welcome is quite unforgettable.

TheBookHippie How wonderful!! 6mo
BarbaraBB That is wonderful. Part of my family comes from Bandung! 6mo
marleed How cool! I love your life!! 6mo
