Hooray! I&#8217;d like to read even more for 2023. Retinoschisis could ultimately take away my ability to read, and I&#8217;m already struggling with small print.

I fell out of the habit when circumstances kept me away from my computer (and Babbel) for a while. Now I&#8217;m finding it very hard to get back into it. I was in the middle of a book of French short stories when I stopped studying. Finishing that book might help, so I&#8217;m making that a near-term goal.<\/li><li>3 were in verse. That&#8217;s pretty good, but I know I could easily read more poetry. I will try to always keep a book of poetry near my bed and to read at least one poem every night.<\/li><li>1 was nonfiction. Lackluster. I can do better.<\/li><li>8 were rereads. Every year should have at least a few rereads. There&#8217;s no point in keeping books if you&#8217;re not going to read them again.<\/li><li>At least 5 were written by authors of color. That&#8217;s a big improvement.<\/li><li>35 were children&#8217;s or YA novels, 18 of which I read because they were on the list of Top 100 Children&#8217;s Books. Having a specific reading goal (the list) helped me read more. My goal for 2023 is to finish the list. After that, I will set myself a new goal.<\/li><li>33 got A-level grades, which was really good, especially considering that I didn&#8217;t even grade 12 of the books.
