Reading in 2022

I try to read ~50 books a year and some years post end of year reading lists.

• 2020
• 2019
• 2016
• 2015

This isn’t really planned but is a rough goal which I sometimes go over. This year I went under; I’m not sure why. All the normal I’m busy reasons apply, but I think it was more of a year of learning other ways. And I did more writing than reading which I accept.

Also, a bit more background information:

• How to Establish a Reading Practice
• The Dangerous Effects of Reading
• Reading Multiple Books at Once

Ok, the list, * next to a book I really enjoyed.
