20 Years of Reading

20 years.  TWENTY YEARS OF READING.

Okay, so technically this isn’t true.  I’ve been reading since I was 5.  So (here’s my age)…I’ve been reading for 39 years.  But for the past 20 years, I’ve been diligently tracking what I read.  I’ve read 876 books in the last 20 years.

 

Before I get into that, I would just like to give a shout out to my parents.  My parents taught me to read.  I knew how to read before I started Kindergarten and I owe that to my parents.  We didn’t have a lot of money growing up (we never lacked for ANYTHING though), but my parents worked hard to make sure we had everything we needed.  We always had chewable Flintstones vitamins (do they make those anymore?  For adults?  If they do, I WANT THEM.)  We had family vacations every year.  We had surprise gifts a few times a year (individually wrapped that Mom and Dad would haul into the living room in a garbage bag).  SO FUN.  And we always had those educational workbooks that they bought that we worked on during the summer (so you don’t forget what you learn?  So you are prepared for the next grade?  Honestly, I have no idea, but they worked, whatever their purpose was).  I remember in Kindergarten when my teacher, Mrs. Kitt, whipped out the ‘read aloud’ books (Buffy and Mack!  Sun Up) for the students to practice on (probably to determine what reading level you were at?) and I was able to read the entire book aloud with no help.  I was so proud of myself.

 

We were also read to nightly.  My dad would read my sister and I the daily text each night.  He would always read us the verse and then ask my sister and I who wrote it and we would both say ‘Matthew-Mark-Luke-John-Paul’ super-fast trying to guess the Biblical writer.  Because the chances of it being one of them was high ha ha.  And when we moved into our white house (2 blocks from the library!), I remember my mom reading a Golden Book every night/day to me and my brother (we would always pick the longest one ha ha). 

 

And so it began.

 

I wish I would have started tracking my books as a pre-teen/teenager, but oh well.  I started tracking diligently in 2001.  Which is very interesting, because looking back at my reading habits, you can clearly see the years when things were bad, when things were busy, and when things were normal.

 

I tracked first in an old journal, then I transferred it to another notebook.  Then I transferred it to an Excel spreadsheet.  Then back to a notebook.  Then back to a spreadsheet.  And so on and so on.  Then finally back to a notebook, only this time I choose a nicer notebook that wouldn’t fall apart:    

 

https://nebulanote.com/product/casual-noteturquoise-dotted/350/?cate_no=108&display_group=1

 

(this is a Korean company, but I bought it from a local stationery shop)

 

And so far, so good.  It’s just the right size to fit on my bookshelves and with PLENTY of room to expand (at least another 20 years, if not more ha ha). 

 

I track the Month/Year read, Title, Author, Fiction/Non-Fiction, Publication Year, Page numbers, and my rating (stars, 1-5).  Now, I’ve not been great about tracking publication year or page numbers, but I plan to be better in 2022.  Everything else is really easy to track so that’s no big deal.  I don’t write reviews or anything, just the star-rating.  If I have anything substantial to stay, I write it on Goodreads.

 

My lowest reading years (from the past 20 years) as far as quantity were 2006-2008, which makes perfect sense if you knew what was going on with me personally then ha ha.  And my highest years (quantity wise) have been the last five:

 

2017:  78

2018: 159 (!)

2019: 86

2020: 120

2021: 82

 

These numbers are interesting.  My reading numbers were pretty low (except for 2004?) until about 2011.  They picked up a bit, but were still low-ish, until we bought our current house in July of 2017.  Did they increase then because I had a library in our new house?  A dedicated reading space?  More space in general?  Less stress because things were settled and we bought our ‘forever’ home?  Probably all of the above.  Anyways, I’m not complaining.

 

So now I give you my 5-star reads from the past 20 years.  But first…..a few disclaimers.  I’m only including adult/YA/middle grade books that are typically more than 100 pages.  ALSO….I had a few 5-star reads from way back when that I don’t even remember what the book was about so I probably won’t include those.  This list will only include the books I remember and I remember loving.  Just in case you decide to pick one up.  I was a completely different person in 2001 than I am now, and honestly some of these older ones may be rated completely different today if I read them again.

I’m sure I inadvertently omitted some and added others, but nobody’s perfect.  Over the past 20 years, here are my standouts from the lists above:

 

Kingsolver, B. - The Poisonwood Bible (2001) – I was reading this the week of September 11^th when the towers fell.  I remember reading it in the break room one day and the next day we were all crowded around the TV in that same break room watching the news reports.

 

Berg, E. – The Pull of the Moon (2002) – A gut punch.  I remember reading this during some rough times in my 1^st marriage (only 3 years in to it) and just crying my eyes out.

 

Austen, J. – Pride & Prejudice (2002) – A classic-classic.

 

Brent, M. – Moonrakers Bride (2003) – Historical fiction with many twists and turns.

 

Steinbeck, J. – East of Eden (2004) – An investment in time, but worth it.  Amazing.

 

Smith, B. – A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (2005) – When people ask me what my favorite book is, this is what I tell them. It’s 99% true.

 

Mitchell, M. – Gone With the Wind (2013) (re-read…I’ve read it multiple times)

 

O’Farrell, M. – This Must Be the Place (2018) (this cannot be read on a Kindle or audiobook.  It must be a physical copy).

 

Hannah, K. – The Great Alone (2018) Read if you want to cry.  It’s so good.

 

Stegner, W. – Crossing to Safety (2018) Another one that I want to re-read.  I think about it all the time.

 

Miller, S. – Caroline (2019) – Simplicity at its finest.

 

Keane, M. – Ask Again Yes (2019) – The author of this book liked my Goodreads review of it and I was shocked and thrilled.  The kids in this book grew up the same time frame that I did.  It was so nostalgic.

 

Nielsen, J. – A Night Divided (2019) – MIDDLE GRADE – Still one of the most suspenseful books I’ve ever read.

 

O’Farrell, M. – Hamnet (2020) – I think about this book on a weekly basis and can’t wrap my head around how brilliant it is.

 

Backman, F. – Anxious People (2020) – Frederik Backman has a special place in my heart.  I love his books, and I love how he is so open about his own mental health struggles.  I think that’s why I love this book so much.

 

Kondo, M. – The Life Changing Magic of Tidying-Up (2015) – Have too much stuff?  Read this.

 

Durrell, G. – My Family and Other Animals (2018) – This book made me laugh out loud like no other book has.

 

Mecham, J. – You Need a Budget (2018)  - This book and this budgeting system is the reason my husband and I are completely debt free (except for our house).  We have been living by this system/budgeting software for YEARS.  I recommend it constantly to everyone. 

 

Park, Y. – In Order to Live (2018) – One of the most haunting memoirs I’ve read.

 

I set a goal to read 100 books this year, and I’m pretty confident that I will meet (if not exceed) it.  I have lots of middle-grade books on my TBR shelf and I fly through those ha ha.

 

Yay for another year of reading!

**Summerwater (Fiction, S. Moss)

Sarah Moss wrote an amazing memoir of her time living in Iceland called 'Names for the Sea'.  So I was excited to pick up this little big.  And then was big time disappointed.  There was ZERO dialogue in this book.  Each chapter was told from a different perspective of a person staying at a cabin park in Scotland.  It's like one giant stream of consciousness.  

3-STARS

Just....kind of boring.  Or maybe I've just read too many WWII novels lately.

March Reads (9)

1-STAR

 *The Secret History (Fiction, D. Tartt)

Donna Tartt has a knack for writing the most UNLIKABLE characters ever.  This was about 6 rich kids (well, 5 rich kids and 1 who pretended to be) who killed one of their own because they were worried that he would run his mouth about another murder they committed.  All 6 of them were so incredibly terrible that I just didn't care what happened to them.  Well, I guess I can't say that because NOTHING HAPPENED TO THEM and that infuriated me.  No major consequences for their actions.

All they did was sit around and get drunk, do drugs, and talk about how smart they were and would throw in a Greek sentence or two (in case we forgot they were intellectual people).  Oh, and they killed people.

The sad thing is that Donna Tartt is an excellent writer.  Had even ONE of these characters been even the tiniest bit likable, this probably would have been at least a 3-star read for me.

*Home Front (Kristin Hannah)

I just need to stop reading books about veterans, the spouses of veterans, and war-related PTSD (and the spouse of someone with war-related PTSD).  Because they never. get. it. right.  Or even CLOSE to right.  

I realize that every person and every situation is different.  But I just could not get past the cringe-worthy clichés about PTSD and veterans in this book.

And the children were HORRIBLE.  Don't get me wrong, I love a book with a well-written 4-year-old and the drama of a 12-year-old.  But these kids were just terribly written.

Kristin Hannah is one of my favorite authors.  But this book was not for me.

2-STARS

**The Hunting Party (Fiction, L. Foley)

This book started off strong for me, but as it went on I hated each character more and more.

3-STARS

***Uglies (Fiction, YA, S. Westerfield)

1st part of a quadrilogy.  Is that a word?  Anyways.  I liked it.  I think.  I'll keep going with the series.  Typically the first book is never the best one.

***The Light in Hidden Places (Fiction, YA, S. Cameron)

I think the biggest problem that I had with this book was that I listened to it on audio.  And the narrator was fantastic....however the book is told from a teenage girl's perspective and the narrator sounded like she was in her 40s or 50s.  If that makes sense.  It just felt so....distracting.

***The Shell Seekers (Fiction, R. Pilcher)

Had this been 100 pages shorter, I probably would have liked it better.

4-STARS

****The Lost Apothecary (Fiction, S. Penner)

ALMOST a five-star read.  I loved this book.  There were parts of it that felt a bit rushed though, so I deducted a star.  But I'm still thinking about it.  So maybe I shouldn't have been stingy with my stars.

****The Art of Making Memories (Non-Fiction, M. Wiking)

From the author of the Little book of Hygge and the Little book of Lykke.  I really enjoyed this one, especially because he stresses the importance of getting out of 'digital photo hell' by organizing and printing off your pictures (whether it be actual pictures or in a printed book from a website).  I sooooooo need to work on this big time.  It's one of my goals for this year.  I'm going to work backwards, so my first book will be for the year 2020.  It will probably be thin ha ha.  Also, Mark Wiking's books are just so cute.  They look adorable all lined up.

5-STARS

*****The Namesake (Fiction, YA, A. Young)

The sequel to Fable, one of my favorite books last year.  It did not disappoint, and I was NOT ready for this story to end!  I want more books!  And these books win all the stars for their covers.

*****This Time Next Year (Fiction, S. Cousens)

A light, not-too-cheesy rom-com. 

 

4-STARS

****The Four Winds (Fiction, K. Hannah)

Super depressing, but I didn’t expect it to be a ray of sunshine.  The Dust Bowl and the Great Depression.  But I read this book in less than 48 hours…it was a page turner for me, even though it was difficult.

 

****The Paris Library (Fiction, J. Skeslien)

This was excellent, and based on a true story of the American Library in Paris.  I almost gave it 5 stars, but it was VERY easy to put down, so it lost a star.

 

3-STARS

***Invisible Girl (Fiction, L. Jewell)

Lisa Jewell is hit or miss for me.  This one was just okay.

 

***A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow (Fiction, YA, L. Taylor-Namey)

Had a hard time getting into this one, but parts of it were very endearing

 

***The Age of Miracles (Fiction, YA, K. Thompson-Walker)

It’s been done before.  The Earth slowed down, making daylight extend for up to 60 hours and of course throwing everything else off in the process. An easy audio listen, but nothing spectacular.

 

2-STARS

**Midnight Blue (Fiction, S. Vandervlugt)

2 stars because of the descriptions of Amsterdam, one of my favorite cities.  The story and character development…not great.  It felt like it was trying to be ‘Girl With a Pearl Earring’, but failed.

****The Office: The Untold Story of the Greatest Sitcom of the 2000s: An Oral History (Non-Fiction, A. Greene)

Die hard fans of The Office (like myself) will LOVE this book.  Loads of behind the scenes info about the show, the actors, the storylines, the staff, etc.

****Evvie Drake Starts Over (Fiction, L. Holmes)

This one was a 3 star read up until the last quarter or so.  I liked the way the author handled the mental health portions and therapy.

 

3-STARS

***Watching You (Fiction, L. Jewell)

I’m a fan of Lisa Jewell, but this one was pretty disturbing and creepy.  But I still liked it!

***Call Your Daughter Home (Fiction, D. Spera)

I think if I had read this at a different time I would have liked it more.  It was EXTREMELY heavy.

***To Sleep in a Sea of Stars (Fiction, C. Paolini)

Sci-fi, aliens, and about 300 pages too long.  But still enjoyable!

***Evening and the Morning (Fiction, K. Follett)

My first Follett book, which is good because it’s a prequel to his World Without End Series.  It’s DEFINITELY not for everyone and I wouldn’t recommend it, but I also am still thinking about the first two chapters.  Probably the best ‘first’ couple of chapters I’ve ever read.  

2020 Reading Review

2020 was obviously a difficult year.  I was in a HUGE reading slump at the beginning of the year, but then pulled out of it.

I track *most* of my reads on Goodreads.  On Goodreads, I reported 111 books read.  In my personal tracker, I recorded 120 books. 

Why don't I track ALL of my books on Goodreads?  In short, because I don't want to offend anyone or be judged by some of my reads.  Are they bad?  No.  But they might not be everyone's cup of tea and I just find it easier to keep them to myself.  Now...I'm talking mostly fantasy/sci-fi/romance here.  And nothing horrific.  If you're okay with Star Wars and Marvel movies, then you SHOULD be okay with these books.  But not everyone is.  And that's okay.  That's why I just keep some of them to myself.

Anyways, I tried to pick out my favorite of 2020, but I couldn't.  I had nine 5-star reads in 2020, and I could only narrow it down to 3.  I tried, I really tried to just pick one.  But I couldn't.  So, my three favorites:

Hamnet (Maggie O'Farrell)

Anxious People (Fredrik Backman)

Fable (Adrienne Young)

All were AMAZING.  And I would recommend them to anyone (and already have).

This year I set another reading goal on Goodreads for 100 books.  I've read 3 so far.  I continue to listen to at least half (if not more) on audio.  While playing Animal Crossing ha ha. 

December Reads (23)

 I might just start doing these in list form because I am lazy and it's a lot to keep up with ha ha.

**Florence Adler Swims Forever (Fiction, R. Beanland)

I think if I had read this book at a different time I may have enjoyed it more.  But I just found it to be annoying.

 

**The Dead and the Gone (Fiction, YA, S. Pfeffer)

#2 of a series…I won’t be finishing.  It was exactly like the first book, just in a different location.  Pass.

 

**Home Body (Non-Fiction, R. Kaur)

I liked her first two books of poetry, but this one…definitely not for me.  And probably not for a lot of people ha ha.

 

**Pandemonium (Fiction, YA, L. Oliver)

The second book after Delirium.  It was just meh.  I won’t read the third book.

 

**Before I Fall (Fiction, YA, L. Oliver)

Mean Girls meets Groundhog Day.  I tried Lauren Oliver, I really tried.  No more!

 

3-stars

***Britt-Marie Was Here (Fiction, F. Backman)

A decent read (or listen, which is what I did), but definitely not my favorite by him.

 

***The Sun and Her Flowers (Non-Fiction, R. Kaur)

Milk and Honey is still my favorite by her, but this one was good too.  I’m just not a huge poetry fan.

 

***Truly Devious (Fiction, YA, M. Johnson)

The first in a trilogy, although I believe there’s a 4^th one that just came out.  This was very Sherlock Holmes-y, but YA. I liked it.

 

***The Tattooist of Auschwitz (Fiction, H. Morris)

Based on a true story!

 

***Delirium (Fiction, YA, L. Oliver)

I think the best part about this book is that it was narrated by Sarah Drew (April Kepner of Grey’s Anatomy)

 

***Red Rising (Fiction, Sci-Fi, P. Brown)

The first of 5 I think?  I liked this one.  Mars is colonized and the people are ranked according to their status.  So one of the Reds (the lowest rank) gets disguised and is accepted into the Golds to try to break down the system from the inside.  It’s complicated and definitely not an easy or light read, but it was intriguing.

 

***The Secret of the Old Clock (Fiction, Children’s, C. Keene)

Nancy Drew #1.  These are fun.

 

***The Hidden Staircase (Fiction, Children’s, C. Keene)

Nancy Drew #2. 

 

***The Heir (Fiction,  YA, K. Cass)

Book 4 of the Selection series.  I liked it better than I thought I would!

 

***The Crown (Fiction, YA, K. Cass)

Final book of the Selection series.  I finished!  Now I can shelf these pretty books.

  

4-stars

****Aurora Rising (Fiction, YA, A. Kaufman)

Passengers (the movie) meets Guardians of the Galaxy meets Stranger Things.  A great audio listen.

 

****Warcross (Fiction, YA, M. Lu)

The first in a duology about a massive gaming system hack and the girl responsible for it.  Very interesting!

 

****I Will Judge You By Your Bookshelf (Non-Fiction, Graphic Novel, G. Snider)

Cute, although it was much more about writing than reading.
