We're down to the last Top 5 Wednesday of the year! This week's topic is all about the type of books I want to read more of in 2018. 1. Big BooksIn the past, I've focused more on the QUANTITY of books I wanted to read in the year, rather than focusing on the QUALITY. That means that I've put off a lot of bigger books, intimidated by their size and the amount of time they take up to read. Next year, I want to read less books overall, and choose the ones I want to read most of all, regardless of size. That means there will undoubtedly be more bigger books on the agenda. 2. ClassicsAs you can probably tell by my last week's top 5 favorite books for the entire year, I really enjoy reading classics. 3 out of 5 of my top 5 favorite reads in 2017 were classic books. While I did manage to read a pretty decent amount of classics this year, next year I want to read even more. Less YA, more LIT. 3. FantasyI feel like I put off reading a lot of my fantasy books in 2017, and focused on smaller, contemporary reads. I'd like to switch it up next year and go back to reading more fantasy. It really is a genre that I love but also one that I hardly read anymore. 4. Under-hyped booksIn the past few years, since discovering Booktube and Bookstagram, I've fallen into the bad habit of really only reading things that I've seen other people reading. While that is okay on a small scale, I think I would rather find my own reading material, based off of what I think is interesting, even if nobody else cares to join me. 5. Books I OwnI had a lot of fun utilizing my local library in 2017, but I think that next year, I'd rather read the books I own that I haven't gotten to yet. (There's over 100. That should keep me busy for the entire year.) I'll maybe reward myself with one library read per month, because some of the books have been sitting on my shelf for two years or so and it's just getting ridiculous. So what do you think? What kinds of books do you want to read next year? |
