Now that we’re closing in on the middle of July, lots of book bloggers are reviewing their 2008 statistics, and I didn’t want to be left out of the fun [via Bookgirl].
- Books read: 14 (which makes me feel woefully inadequate next to Bookgirl’s 48)
- Mysteries: 1
- Fiction: 12
- Books by women: 8
- Library copies: 1
- Books I have, will, or might teach this year: 4
- Books I didn’t like: 1
- YA books: 2
- Classics: 5
- Online (DailyLit): 1
- New-to-me authors: 9
- Books published this year: 2
- Average Goodreads rating (out of 5 stars): 4.21
I am a little surprised about the high rating. My overall Goodreads rating is 4.36. I think that’s because I rarely finish I book I don’t like, and I don’t review or rate books I don’t finish. Therefore, all of the books I’ve read this year (with one exception) received 4 or 5 stars.
What are some of your reading stats for this year?
Oh no, don't feel behind. I've seen some book bloggers mention that they are already at 100 – Yikes! 🙂
You know my book dislikes would probably be a very low number too. If it's a book I really don't like then I'm just not going to finish it.
Can't wait to read your review of The Lace Reader by the way!
