Hey guys. It's Trina and today I'm
bringing you my 2016 reading goals check
in as well as my new reading goals for
2017. At the beginning of last year I did
set 10 goals for myself and just a few
months into the year I realized that
some of them weren't going to work out
the way that I wanted or I had already
lost interest in some of them. So in the
middle of 2016 I actually reevaluated
those goals that I had set for myself
and I came out of that reevaluation with
a new total of 8 goals. I did do
a video for both the original setting of
the goals and the mid-year check-in and
re-evaluation so since I've already done
two videos explaining why I set those
particular goals for myself I'm not
going to rehash the reasons, I'm just
going to quickly show you my check in
with last year's goals.
[music only]
As you can see I completed five out
of the eight goals that I set for myself
last year and I am perfectly ok with that.
However you may feel about setting goals
or not setting goals for yourself for
whatever reasons, personally I really
enjoy doing that. I find that they do
motivate me and kind of give me a little
bit of direction. However, I never beat
myself up if I don't complete everything
that I set out for myself. Now let's talk
about the new goals and I want to set for myself this year.
Number one: I want to read more adult books this year. I
have absolutely nothing against YA, you guys
know I love YA books. I get a lot of
depth and meaning out of them so this
isn't that I want to read more adult
books because I'm tired of YA. It's not like
that. It's just a fact that I have
always read both adult and YA books
and I noticed that in 2016 I read fewer
adult books than ever and I don't know
really how I feel about that because I
don't want to be ignoring that age
demographic completely so I just want to
this year read more adult books than I did last year.
My second goal is that I
want to read more own voices books. Now
if you aren't familiar with what own
voices means this is referring to a book
that is about a main character that has
the same type of identity as the author.
So for example if a black author writes
about a black main character that is
own voices. Last year the majority of
the books I read were diverse, they did
feature a main character that was a
diverse race, or sexuality, or mental or
physical disability.
However, not even half of the diverse
books that I read last year were
actually own voices so this year I just
want to support own voices more because
it is something that I am interested in supporting.
I also want to read more
debuts this year. I think it's really
cool to be able to say like I read their
first book and I still like them five
books later because I've had a few
authors that that's been my experience
with. Last year I didn't quite meet
my goal of wanting to have read eight
debuts. I read seven and then DNFed
the 8th one so I'm not going to count it
because technically I look at the number
7 and I think why wasn't that number 12?
So this year I still want to focus on
reading debuts and hopefully at the
end of this year I'll end up with a
number that I feel better about.
The next goal is that I want to read around the world more.
What I mean by this is that the
majority of the books that I read are
set in the US or the UK. I do want to
read outside of just like this one world
?outlook, you know what I mean
So last year I did track my reading
locations, where all the books that I
read we're set.
I didn't have very many set in Australia.
I read one book that was barely set in
South America - that is a continent that I
have never really read anything set in
before. I've very rarely read books set in
Africa. I've never read anything set in
Antarctica although I know there are
books that are set there. And along with
this goal, not only do I want to read
books that are set in more of a variety
of locations, I also want to read books
by authors from those locations, not
necessarily exclusively, but that is also
something that I want to look at in
terms of this goal. And I would really
appreciate it if you guys had any book
recommendations set in any of those
locations to share with me down in the comments.
I also want to read more books
that my friends are recommending to me.
Last year what I did was I asked 10
friends and booktubers to recommend a
specific book to me and I found that
very difficult to do because when I'm
faced with, 'hey you should read this
exact book,' and then when I'm not in the
mood for that book or like my attention
is being diverted to all the new
releases and the things that I'm
currently getting hyped up about, I'm
just not gonna pick up a specific book.
Like that's not something that works for me.
So this year, instead of asking for
specific recommendations I just want to
pay more attention to the books that
people are recommending in like their
monthly recommendations or in their top
favorite books of last year. Like, people
who I talk to a lot, I really want to
make sure that if they're reading books
that I am recommending, I want to read a
book that they're recommending as well
so we can talk about them more. So I do
want to be better at reading books that
my friends highly recommend.
And my final reading goal for 2017 is that I want to
read my own books. This is the same
goal that I had last year, and what I mean
by this is that I want to read the books
that I personally own and have not read
yet. My number of unread books that I own
is 12. That is one of the lower numbers I
hear of on booktube but the reason for
that is because like the majority of the
books that I read are from the library. I
don't buy books that often until like
after I've read them and know that I like them.
But sometimes I do buy a book because
I'm looking forward to it and then I
kind of get distracted by something else,
or I'm sent books or given books as
gifts, so I want to show you guys the
twelve books this year that I own,
haven't read, and want to read by the end of 2017.
I have life and death by Stephanie Meyer.
The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness.
Books two and three in The Darkest Minds trilogy by Alexandra Bracken.
I have Wild Swans and A Tyranny of Petticoats by
Jessica Spotswood, who is one of my favorite
authors but I still for whatever reason
have not read these books.
I have The Near Witch, A Gathering of Shadows, and
This Savage Song all by Victoria Schwab
who is one of my favorite authors that I
am also very very behind on.
The Midnight Star by Marie Lu.
Our Chemical Hearts by Krystal Sutherland.
And finally, Kids of Appetite by David Arnold.
It's just 12 books so I know that I can do it.
My problem is not being distracted by
like all the new releases and all the
things that people are currently talking
about because that's the only reason why
these have been on my shelf for so long already.
That's it for my goals for this year.
Please let me know in the comments if
you're setting any reading goals for
yourself. I'd love to know what a couple
of those are. Happy 2017 everybody! I'm
looking forward to another year on my
channel. Thank you guys so much for
watching and for all of your support and
I will see you guys in the comments. Bye!
