With the New Year here, I decided to share some of my goals for 2017. These will be related to the bookish communities and I don’t really set personal goals for myself as often.
First up, I’ve decided to set my Goodreads goal to 50 books in 2017, This way, I am able to reread some of my favourites and won’t have to stress about reading, especially with a busy school year. Who’d want to read if it’s a chore, right?
I also want to finish some series that I have left unfinished because I just never got around to it. Comment below if you want to see a post about some unfinished series that I shall get around too.
I’m planning on reducing the amount of books I buy this year. I will be using the library more often and if I love a book, I will buy it.
As for blogging, I’ve decided that I will try to post at least twice a month, whether that be reviews, book tags or discussion posts. But I’m secretly aiming for once a week (shh don’t tell anyone just in case I don’t stick to that plan). I’m also planning to do monthly wrap ups as well, which I didn’t do this year on my blog. I usually do it on Instagram but I figured that if I did it here, I’d be able to talk more about it.
I also want to interact with bloggers more so I’m aiming to comment on posts that I read. If you post something and would like me to read, leave a link for me. I’d like to read it and discover new bloggers.
Not only do I want to interact with more bloggers, but I also want to immerse myself into the bookish community. I’ll try to comment on everyone’s post and reply to messages.
With all the diverse talk, lately, I noticed that I do not read as diversely as I should. Therefore, I’m going into the new year thinking about which diverse books I’d like to read and I’m going to be more conscious about it.
I guess my overall aim in 2017 is to meet new people and boost my confidence in talking to others.
I hope you enjoy this post. Comment below some of your new year resolutions.
Yes please, do an unfinished series blog post! I’m doing one (eventually) and would love to see other people’s lists! 😀 Good luck on your Goodreads goal, too! I’m setting mine to 25 but I’ll probably move the goal every time I get close. It renews the challenge for me that way. 🙂
