My one goal for 2022 was to “read more.” That is admittedly pretty nebulous, and by the end of the year I had ended up reading 100 books (for context I had read 17 the year before).
I started out the first half of the year making kind of collagey journal spreads to document my reading, but by the time came to start a new journal I had become bored with the process. At that point I decided I was much more interested in tracking stats and reading challenges. I did some brief reviews in my daily planner for most of my books, but at the end of the year I brought it all together for a giant tally of statistics. So here we are with the Yearly Wrap Up!
I had started out in July with a few basic pages that I kept up with for the coming months.
And then the end-of-year wrap up, including…
The List. Also a Book Bracket, which it turns out is a horrible way to choose a best book for the year.
Little thumbnails of all the book covers I’d read throughout the year grouped by my rating for the book. I give all books a 4 by default, just for the record.
Shelfie and Sources
Statistics! Also movies and TV shows, because why not.
And then just for fun, since I was on a roll with statistics and charts, I put all my sewing/destash stats for the year.
So there it is! I have plenty of space left in this journal and lots of stickers and washi tape, so I expect I’ll be doing this again next December/January.
