2012 reading goals
ETA on Feb 7: I joined a book group to try to meet more people and will likely be reading fewer authors of colour and fewer books off my to-read list so I've adjusted my goals.
Overall count: I'm going to try for 40 in 2012 but would be okay with about 25.
From my to-read list (specifically entries added to Goodreads list in 2011):minimum 75% or 30 minimum 60% or 24
By authors of colour:min 75% or 30 min 60% or 24
By female authors: min 50% or 20
Non-fiction books: min 25% or 10
By queer authors: min 10% or 4
Poetry (instead of fiction, non-fiction): min 5% or 2
In Chinese: min 5% or 2
I've planned out and tagged on Goodreads:
2012-pending shelf (to-read)
2012 shelf (read)
*gap between sum of those two and 40 indicate TBD books or extras
