I feel book goals allow me to reflect more; I have also enjoyed reviewing books this year - something I’m new to. I love the challenge of reading goals; and decided for 2021 I want to integrate genres to emphasize as well. I’ll be particiapting in the #toni21readathon ; and focusing on SciFi/Fantasy and LBGTQIA. Of course I’ll weave in impulsive line skippers, and books I read after purchasing books I said I wasnt going to buy. #yearofepicreads #mochaqueenreads #blackliterature #amplifyblackvoices #antiracistbooks #decolonizedecember #diversifybookstagram #diversifyyourbookshelf #diversespines https://www.instagram.com/p/CJd7k91AmTa/?igshid=1elm38af62oz5
