My Year in Books – 2016

2015 was not a year where I focused on reading, but like the booknerd I am I decided to change that in 2016. I created a goodreads account to track my progress, and set the goal to 50 books, which I figured a toddler mom with a fulltime job should be able to do. It is after all less than one book a week.

The result…

– 57 read books (goal met!)

– 89% crime fiction

– 63% Swedish authors

– 58% female authors

It is hardly a surprise that I mostly read Swedish crime fiction, but I had no idea if I had read books mostly by male or female authors, so 58% female authors was a pleasant surprise.
