For comparison’s sake, here were my Bookish goals for 2024. I achieved most of them as least partially.
This year I would like to:
1. Write more film reviews for Long and Short Reviews. I find it easier to read for 15 to 30 minutes here and there as I work on book reviews for them than I do to set aside 2 or 3 consecutive hours to watch a movie. Let’s see if I can change that this year.
2. Read more from the solarpunk genre. Like cozy mysteries, these are such soothing stories because I know everything will turn out okay in the end. Generally, they’re even pretty comforting in the middle of everything.
3. Whittle down my TBR list. This is a never-ending goal for me!
4. Use humor more often in my reviews. One of the things I think some of the other LASR reviewers – and even a lot of TTT reviewers whose blogs I have visited over the years – do really well is find playful ways to word things. My reviews are generally more serious in nature, but I’m wondering I can switch things up a little in certain cases.
5. Review more of the books I read, especially for indie authors. I know how important reviews are to them, but it can be hard to find the time to review everything or even to know what to say for certain books.
6. Avoid spilling tea again on my phone while reading an ebook. (Luckily, the tea had cooled down and it was only a few drops of it!)
7. Avoid spilling anymore crumbs on my phone while reading, too. Can you sense a theme developing in my life? 😉
8. Listen to audiobooks regularly. They are such a handy way to squeeze in more reading time.
9. Read more nonfiction. If you’ve read any great books in this genre, I’d sure like to hear about them.
10. Read more poetry.
