![]() ![]() I’m going to start with the first book I read in 2020, which was The Sun-Down Motel, by Simone St. Not sure if that’s too ambitious, but we’ll see! While I’m not sure if I’m going to go with a specific theme for book reviews (only women, or only the classics, only literary fiction, etc.), I’d like to expand my book-reading horizons – lately I’ve been reading a lot of thrillers and romance novels, which I love – and I’m going to try and hit a goal of reading 100 books in 2020. Plus, I love book reviews, and I’ve long wanted to try my hand at writing them myself, but unfortunately, books coverage is a dying beat in the journalism world. ![]() I can’t think of a better way to do than to simply read more. I’ve always loved to read (I was definitely that kid who packed at least four or five books into my backpack to take with me on 30-minute runs to the grocery store with my mom, because what if I needed to read them all at that exact moment?) and I’m trying to stretch my creative muscles and really challenge myself to improve my own writing. My personal goal/resolution for 2020 is to spend less time online (doing a great job so far!) and more time reading for fun. Hey, I don’t make the rules! Okay, I do – and I’d like to start publishing book reviews. ![]() This blog is a book review appreciation account now. ![]()
