bitesizedreadingIt's that time of year where every day feels like a Sunday (or for those of us back at work, a Monday). So instead of the usual Wednesday Intended Reading post I thought I'd ask about your end of year/beginning of year reading and recycle some questions from last January.
Feel free to treat the following questions as prompts and answer as many or as few as you like.
How did you make/find time to read in 2016?
Do you think you read more or less than in previous years?
What were your reading highlights of 2016?
Did you reach any reading goals in 2016?
What made up the bulk of your reading in 2016? (e.g. novels, stories, fic, non-fiction, articles, social media, work related texts)
Where did you do most of your reading in 2016?
If you exchange gifts at this time of year, did you give or receive any good books?
Have you managed to get any reading done over the holiday period?
Do you have any reading related resolutions or goals for 2017?

What were your reading highlights of 2016? I really loved A Time of Gifts by Patrick Leigh Fermor.
Did you reach any reading goals in 2016? I didn't set any!
What made up the bulk of your reading in 2016? (e.g. novels, stories, fic, non-fiction, articles, social media, work related texts) I read a lot of (long) articles, since they can be read in relatively little time and they exist about almost anything. I also read a lot of non-fiction.
Where did you do most of your reading in 2016? Home or public transportation.
If you exchange gifts at this time of year, did you give or receive any good books? No, but I did get money for books :)
Have you managed to get any reading done over the holiday period?Almost none :(
Do you have any reading related resolutions or goals for 2017? Sort of, I'd like to be more diverse in my reading and read more short stories. And generally read more fiction, but I always say that and tend to gravitate to non-fiction anyway.
