Reading List 2021
2021-Dec-27, Monday 06:54 pmBooks I read in 2021, with rating as follows:
5/5 - Instant favourite, a classic, beyond impressive
4/5 - Great book, thoroughly enjoyed
3/5 - Ok, fun enough, don't regret reading but probably wouldn't re-read
2/5 - Has a few things to offer, but wouldn't recommend otherwise
1/5 - Disappointing, meh, or waste of time
0/5 - Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!
My booklist for 2021, in alphabetical order:

17 books total
2 unfinished
Not including kids books read with children
My aim for the year was to read 10-12 books, to increase the number of print published books I was reading, and to decrease my TBR pile. I'm going to call this a success.
