"Didn't read that classic you wanted to?" *Me staring at War and Peace* lol
This is great advice! One thing I would add is that some great books will refer you to other great books to add to your reading list. This is how I end up finding some books I would have never picked up normally.

Great video, thanks Bjorn! I think this breakdown will help lots. It's so easy to get distracted by everything one wants to read while moving from one book to the next. 😆

Great tips! Thanks for your video. I like the 50/50 split because it is normal to find other books that catch your eyes! And you don't want to leave them to the next year xD A big hug!

This is a big problem for me. My readibg lists are scarattered between amazon carts, wishlist, ibooks, and many android e readers and ofcourse a few hard copies. If i can do even 15 books a year that would be a successful year.
