2021 reading goals
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:
1.) Read 60 books. This is my Goodreads target for the year - I managed to achieve this in 2020, but with the ability to actually leave my house on the cards this year I figured it would be a bit harder!
2.) Read a book that's won an award
3.) Read 10 books that have been on my TBR for over a year
4.) Read a book published in every year since 2010.
5.) Finish the Game of Thrones series
6.) Diversify my reading further - make sure I read at least one book written by a person of colour and one book written by a woman every month. Read 5 books with LGBT main characters over the year.
7.) Re-read a book I loved
8.) Read 5 books from the '1001 books to read before you die' list
9.) Read a book that's over 500 pages long
10.) Read a novella
And here's my book bucket list of things from my TBR that I'd love to get through this year. I've got quite a mixture of books that are new to my shelves that I'm very excited to read, and books that have been gathering dust for years!

'The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo' by Taylor Jenkins Reid'A Dance with Dragons I: Dreams and Dust' by George R R Martin'The Devil and the Dark Water' by Stuart Turton'One of Us is Next' by Karen M McManus'Concrete Rose' by Angie Thomas'Little Fires Everywhere' by Celeste Ng'The Testaments' by Margaret Atwood'Animal Farm' by George Orwell'Hamnet' by Maggie O'Farrell
