December 2020 Summary: 01/01/21

Reading report

December continued the COVID-19 shelter in place. It has gotten bad enough that we canceled plans to bring our oldest back up for winter break.

This is my second month of tracking queer books as a subset of my diversified reading. I am running consistent with the books running two to four each month. I would like to increase those numbers this year.

I read more books in December, 29, up from 21 in the previous month. Like November, Sixteen books of my read books were diverse, meaning the majority of my books qualified. On the reviews front, two thirds of the books, twenty-one, qualified. Of those sixteen read, two were queer. Of the reviewed books, four were.

At the start of 20201, I only have 2020 books in my backlog to review. This year's books are down to 57 from 58 of the 346 books read.
