My plan was to read at least one book a week in 2015. Ahh, that didn’t go so well!

1. January: Wild by Cheryl Strayed (Kindle app on my phone)

2. January: Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffenegger (book on loan from the library)

3. January: The love of a good woman by Alice Munro (collection of short stories, book on loan from the library)

4. January: Twelve Years a Slave by Solomon Northup (book on loan from the library)

5. February: The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying by Marie Kondo (Kindle app on my phone)

Tried to read: The Sweetest Dream by Doris Lessing (book on loan from the library) … but realised very early on I didn’t like any of the characters. Any. So I stopped. Here’s a review from The Guardian to see if you might like the book.

6. March: Lionel Asbo: State of England by Martin Amis (book on loan from the library)

7. March: The Lotus Eaters by Marianne MacDonald (book on loan from the library)

8. April: Where Are You Now? by Mary Higgins Clark (book on loan from the library)

9. May: Firmin by Sam Savage (book on loan from the library)

10. May: The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt (book on loan from the library)

11. June: As You Wish by Cary Elwes (audio book downloaded to iPad)

12. July: Waiting for Doggo by Mark B. Mills (a present from Louise)

13. July: Bruno, Chief of Police by Martin Walker (from a secondhand bookstore in Bern)

14. August: Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn (Kindle book on iPad)

Will 2016 be the year of more book reading? It hasn’t been so far, but I’ll give it a shot. The hammock is set up in my office so I definitely have the perfect location!
