December 2018 Sources: 01/02/19

October book sources

By the middle of December I was done with reading for the Cybils. THe back half of the month I primarily read library books that were due and my own collection of 2018 published books that I hadn't yet got to.

The distribution is primarily purchased books (though not purchased in December) and library books. I will jump back into reading road narrative spectrum books in late January.

ROOB Score for the last three years The tend line continued to correct downwards and I suspect it will again at the end of January.

ROOB score mapped year after year to compare trends

Looking at all previous years, December 2018 is the lowest (best) one I've had.

ROOB monthly averages

My average for December dropped from -2.44 to -2.56
