This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic is:
Resolutions/Hopes for 2021 (bookish or not!)
My hopes for the year are that my family and friends continue to stay healthy and safe. And that we will be able to visit Singapore to see our families!
In terms of reading, I want to continue to read diversely. By that, I mean, to read more:
- books in translation
- books by authors from different countries, not just the US
- books by minority writers
- more non-fiction
- hopefully at least six works of classic literature (works published at least 50 years ago).
How about you?
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018.
I hope to read more diversely this year as well.

Great list! I need to work on getting my TBR down (theres definitely some that’s been there for more than two year! Oops.) and good luck with reading more diversly! I’d already done this prompt in another post so I had a go at my top ten favourite albums lol. You seem like you’d have good taste in music, what are yours? Here are mine 😊 https://hundredsandthousandsofbooks.blog/2021/01/12/ttt-12-1-top-ten-albums/

I’m also hoping to read more diversely and read books from authors not from the UK or USA 🙂 best of luck with your 2021 reading goals!

I certainly hope that you and yours all stay healthy and safe! I find books in translation difficult – it needs to be a great book, AND a great translator! A difficult combo. I’d love to know what you’d suggest. These are my bookish New Year Resolutions, and some that I know I could not achieve!

I hope things open back up soon for safe travel. I’m worried about the U.K. trip we’ve planned for the summer. I hope you make it to Singapore this year!
Happy TTT!

I’ve been doing pretty well with more diverse reading over the past few years, but there’s always room for improvement. I definitely don’t read enough books in translation or nonfiction. Good luck with your hopes and goals!

In theory I’d like to read more nonfiction but there are just so many fiction books I want to read! Good luck with your goals! I hope you can stop by:

Thank you! I am also so much more drawn to fiction but I guess sometimes it’s good to read something different.
