2021 reading goals

Two big stacks of books with spines facing towards the camera


This is the first year I've set myself proper reading goals and it's something I'm so excited about. I've really rediscovered my complete love for books over the last year or two and there's so much I'd like to read and push myself to try this year.

I've made a few reading bucket lists of things to get through from my TBR mountain over the last few years, which I'll share for 2021 at the end, but here are my big reading goals for the year:

2020 Goodreads Roundup

Four books face up: To Kill a Mockingbird, Macbeth, A COurt of Mist and Fury and A Feast for Crows

I'm desperately trying to go with the flow and not stress out about the fact that February's almost over and I'm just posting this, but I love the Goodreads year in books roundup and really wanted to write about this. I read more books last year than I have since I was at uni (hello being shut in my house for most of the year), which resulted in reading 22, 861 pages of books!

My 5 worst reads of 2020

5 books with their spines faced down in a row underneath a dry sprig of baby's breath

But, there were a few that disappointed. I know it's February and way overdue, but I love reading these kinds of posts, so here are my five least favourite reads of 2020 with 5 as absolute least favourite:

January Reading Wrap Up

January Reading Wrap Up

It's taken me about ten minutes to even consider how to start this post (and I'm totally not a fan of this beginning), but lockdown 3 feels like it's totally drained my creativity and energy. January was filled with lots of walks to force myself out of the house, and lots of reading in the bath to thaw off. There wasn't a single book last month that I totally LOVED, but I think that might have been more because I was feeling miserable than because all the books I read were rubbish.
