My final wrapup for the year is here. I end the year with my TBR 163 books over my start on Jan 1 (150 ebooks; 13 audiobooks). Met my monthly 3000 pages goal only 4 times. Magazines down by 6. I did significantly cut acquisitions the last quarter so slowing the pace of the out-of-countrol TBR. Sure, I mostly finished off several series, but even eliminating those, it was still a lot of books.
So 2022 will have more modest goals and a tighter reign on purchases. |

A very successful year in terms of TBR reduction - down by 135, which is 18 more than last year! 149 books read. Not my highest or lowest. 8 abandoned. I'm getting better at abandoning stinkers. Even better - only bought 65, less than half the number I read! I can only hope I continue to do well with reading and TBR reduction in 2022! |

I finished a book yesterday which wraps up the year for me. I read a total of 190 books, which was far too many for my reading satisfaction; my goal for next year is no more than 150. However, my high ratings for three books I read at the end nudged my overall Goodreads rating for the year up to 3.2, so that was something, if still below last year.
Otherwise, I didn’t achieve any of my goals. ![]() On to better in 2022, I hope. |

My year end totals:
31 books read (plus 1 abandoned) 8 books purchased for total of $23 (5 of them read) GR rating of just 2.8 is the lowest since 2013 This needs improvement otherwise I'm satisfied with 2021 figures. |

Well, I did surprisingly good this past year, with 123 reads, only because I was sent out on a field trip for three months where there is a lot of waiting involved. My goal next year is to read at least 100, try to stick to the read/reread ratio of 5:1 and maybe not add too many more books to my 1,078 TBR, hah!

It's probably OK to unsticky the 2021 threads now, I reckon.
