2019 Reading Goals Check In
When this year started I shared a piece about setting and achieving your reading goals. One of the things I believe is really important to hitting goals is writing them down and checking in on them through out the year.
Since we’re a little more than halfway through the year, I thought I would share my own reading goals progress.
Read 100 books – I’ve read 56 books as of today
60% of reading by authors of color – I’m 50% White and 50% authors of color
60% of reading by women or gender queer authors – 55% of my books have been by women or gender non-binary authors
25% of reading by non Black authors of color – of the books I’ve read 18% have been by non Black authors of color.
Read 30 books from my unread shelf at the start of 2019 – already ready 23 books from my unread shelf.
Read 10 or more books by queer authors – I’ve hit this goal, with 10 books by queer authors.
Read at least three books in translation – I’ve only read one book in translation so far this year.
As you can see, I clearly have some categories to catch up in, but overall I’m pretty happy with my progress! How about you? How are you doing with your reading goals in 2019? Share in the comments.
