Welcome to my favorite episode to create, a reading recap of 2021 and what to look forward to in 2022. In this solo episode, I share my 2021 intentions, how my reading year of 2021 was, and then I share my 2022 reading goals.

The final count of books read in 2021 was 213 books. I recorded this episode in mid-December so I will give you an estimate. For about nine months of the year, I struggled with a reading slump; however, my reading life picked up, and in Q4, I was able to get the bulk of my reading. In December 2021, I read 31 books which inspires me to have a stretch reading goal.

Tune in to listen to what I hope to accomplish in 2022.
