We are wrapping up the month with Girlxoxo and Traveling with T for the annual #AMonthofFaves blog event – a fun way to recap the year that was. Get all the details here!
This will be my second year participating! (Click here to see last year’s posts!)
THU. | Dec. 26 – #AMonthofFaves Challenges and Goals – Reading challenges, personal goals, resolutions – how did you do? Which was your favorite book read (and/or least favorite) for each challenge – or from all of them? Did you make New Years Resolutions? Did you get to all of them? Are you making any for next year … next month … next season?
2019 was fantastic in terms of the books I read, the new authors I discovered and the authors I met on tour. I began working closely with several publishers and book publicists and the book-mail that followed surpassed my wildest expectations!
Here’s what I read in 2019:
10 Nonfiction Books
8 Romance Books
93 Female Authors
13 Male Authors
9 One-Word Titles (Sadie, Inheritance, etc)
44 Titles began with “The”
12 Titles had a name (Eleanor Oliphant, Nina Hill, Amy Bylar, etc.)
5 Titles had a family member (wife, daughter, etc.)
