Reading Stats and Goals of 2016

Happy new year! The year is over, and it is time to see much I read in 2016. lets see if I completed my reading Goals. 

Goals For 2016 were:

-       Read 17.000 Pages

-       Finish 10 series

-       Read 2 classics

-       Read from 10 writers on my really good writers list

-       Make more reviews

-       Read these 5 standalones: Asking For It Louise o’Neill, The Opposite of Loneliness: Essays and Stories Marina Keegan, This Song Will Save Your Life Leila Sales, My Life Next Door Huntley Fitzpatrick, On The Island Tracey Garvis Graves

Let’s see how many goals I completed!

I read 17.431 pages. So I completed the first goal 😃

I finish 8 series, which I’m really happy with. I didn’t completed this goal but I did a lot better than 2015 (in 2015 I finished 4 series :P) I think I’ll make a separate post of the series that I finished this year, so I can talk more in depth about them.

I read 5 classics: Persuasion by Jane Austen, Winnie-the-Pooh by A.A. Milne, Tuck Everlasting by Natalie Babbitt, The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien and Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone by J.K. Rowling (I know that Harry Potter might not be a classic, but I think it is. It changes my generation, so in my eyes it is a classic 😇).

I read from 9 writers on my really good writers list so I’m not disappointed at all. And again better than in 2015 were I think I read from 7 authors.

The next goal wasn’t that hard. Normally I made 4 reviews per year, so all I needed to do was write more than 4 reviews this year. I don’t exactly know how many reviews I write this year but definitely more than 4. I think it’s somewhere around the 15 to 20 reviews, but that is just a guess.

I didn’t do so well with the standalones. I read My Life Next Door, On The Island and The Opposite of Loneliness. I didn’t get to This Song Will Save Your Life and Asking For It. I’m disappointed with this one. I only had to read 5 books, but no, apparently I couldn’t even do that 😇.

So I completed 3 of the 6 goals and 2 almost so I’m very satisfied with these results 😃
