Reading Year In Review
It's been a year filled with researching for my final project, my dissertation, and my personal development, as well as exploring new review copies and becoming a proper film critic! As a result, it's been up and down in terms of what I've been reading: some things I've absolutely fallen in love with, and others have disappointed me and sent me into reading slumps. The upside is that this year's winners have been pretty easy to narrow down, if difficult to assign to categories; I could've put most of them at the top of multiple groups, but without further ado, these are my stats and the best books that I read in 2018...
Books Read: 80
Novels Read: 41
*Pages Read: 24,743
*according to GoodReads so take it with a pinch of salt
