Pretty nifty stats! You read a good bit more than I did this year, but our percentages are fairly even in a couple of categories here.
ReplyDeleteThanks Em! I'm trying to increase the diversity of my reading, so if you have recommendations, I'll add them to my 2018 reading list!
DeleteHooray on your reading stats! Really well done! Mary Roach is a good option for upping both female and non-fiction stats.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I plan on reading more Mary Roach this year - I love her curiosity and humor. She seems to have this ultimate dream job of finding out the answers to her weirdest questions :)
