So first things first: 2018 reading goals!

• Read 75 books in 2018! (Goodreads Challenge Goal)
  I actually surpassed my goal of 75 by reading 84 books this year! I’m so proud of myself honestly because last year I barely made it.
• Give General Fiction novels another chance.
  I’ll say I’m partially satisfied with this one. I did read more general fiction novels than I ever would have before this year, but I didn’t read as many as I would have liked to, only 7. I just struggle to find ones that sound even vaguely interesting to me. Feel free to comment some recommendations!
• Read at least 15 books that I own, but haven’t read yet.
  I didn’t manage this one. I only read 12 of the 15 I intended to read. 😦
• Keep up with writing reviews.
  I think I did alright with this one for the most part. The only thing I’m unsatisfied with is that I did that thing again where I sort of trail off making posts towards the end of the year.
• Keep reading more #OwnVoices novels.
  Again this is one that I’m partially satisfied with. I definitely read more diverse books than last year and I really enjoyed it, but I think I could have done more. Once again, feel free to comment some recommendations!

So I did mostly good on my goals in 2018, but can always do better. Feel free to check out my 2018 Year in Books.

As for non-reading things, 2018 was a big year for me. I started therapy again, got back on medications, started looking to work outside the home, made a new friend, and am just generally doing better. There’s still a long way to go and it hasn’t been easy, but I’m really proud of myself for the progress I’ve been making and I hope I keep it up going into the new year.

How was your 2018?
