Considering the 2020 pandemic stay-at-home advice/orders, I probably should have done even more reading than I did. As it was, in October I blew past my goal of 66 books and managed to log a total of 80 for the year. (Goodreads has a handy Reading Challenge tool that I’ve used for many years, which is how I know these numbers.)
I posted about the books I read each month, which you can read about at 2020 Reading, which should link to a page with twelve blog posts. Visually, at the bottom of this post, I’ll include an image that includes the covers of all the books I read this year.
Out of that sizable number, some of my favorites were:
Apeirogon by Colum McCann
Educated by Tara Westover
Olive Again by Elizabeth Strout
On Such a Full Sea by Chang-rae Lee
The Book of Jeremiah by Julie Zuckerman
The Hummingbird’s Daughter by Luis Alberto Urrea
The Nickel Boys by Colson Whitehead
