Reading Goals for 2022 (likely far too ambitious 😂)

I also have a goal of reading at least 50 books this year. Totally forgot to mention that 😆
Podcast I didn’t mention, but should have, because they’ve inspired & influenced so very many of my book purchases & growing Tsundoku this last year since i discovered them:

    You are amazing! We have a three year old and I homeschool her and want to read her classic books with great literature. Your videos are introducing so many amazing things to me. Thank you

    I'd love to know what you and your husband make of Spenser's Faerie Queene - such a dense, but incredibly rewarding work. You have some absolutely beautiful editions. I'm particularly envious of that Sherlock Holmes collection with golden-edged pages. You've inspired me to pick up 'Ten Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child.' You've got a great reading year ahead of you - wonderful selection :) Let me know what you make of Wuthering Heights!

    I already love the spelling that Spenser uses, but we definitely have to read it out loud to enjoy it best. It is difficult, and I’m sure I won’t understand it all this first time, but it is so beautiful at the same time that I don’t resent not getting it all. Last year was what I now think of as my “year of books” - we made the space and priority in our budget and got so many lovely books, almost all 2nd hand. I am basically a ThriftBooks junkie at this point, haha, but I was able to find so many treasures. Now down to the lifelong journey of reading them! Yesss, I so want people to read that imagination book. I’m going to have to read it again too. And I am definitely looking forward to Wuthering heights!

    Awesome, I’m so glad! I doubt I’ll get through this whole stack this year, but I am trying to inspire and motivate myself too, because I truly do want to read many different kinds of things 😄

    That would be gold. I find it so difficult sometimes to tell whether it’s unabridged, because they don’t all explicitly tell you. My abridged copy seems super long too!
