This year I learned so much through reading. I really saw my writing expand and grow and my style become easier and my creative side flow in a more even manner. I learned more about what I did and didn’t like, as well as what aspects of books touched something deep within me. 

Reading Ideals for 2016 
* Read less (Haha, yes, I know that sounds weird coming from little ol’ me since I’m all into reading, check out this post for my reasoning.)
* Read more non-fiction (In fact, this month I started a “nonfiction only” challenge for myself. I’m not sure how long it will last, but I’m aiming for at least a couple of weeks.) 
* Review more (all?) of the books I read, although I won’t put all the reviews on Noveltea 

(Please note: The books in the pictures aren’t actually the ones I read since so much of my reading this year was e-books. The books are the equivalent to the same number of pages I read this year.)

What about you? How did your reading go in 2015? What are some reading ideals you have for 2016?

    This post has got me inspired to keep a running list of all the books I read in 2016! I don't really have a goal of how many, I'm just going to see what happens! I'm interested to see how many books I end up reading this year….
