The New Year Book Tag

I recently read the New Year book tag over on the lovely Lois’ blog which I think originated on Bookables YouTube channel, and I decided to give it a go myself. It’s been a while since I completed a tag but it’s definitely something I want to do more of!

How many books are you planning on reading in 2020?

I set my Goodreads goal to 30, the same as last year. Although I have beaten that for the past few years, I still like to set it lower than I expect to reach so that I don’t feel pressured to complete it and also because I feel accomplished when I’ve done it like halfway into the year!

Name a genre you want to read more of in 2020?

One of my favourite books of 2019 was a YA thriller and it’s a genre I definitely don’t read enough of! If you have any recommendations then please send them my way.

Almost all of the Cassandra Clare books.
