2015 – 16 books
2016 – 41 books
2017 – 52 books!!!
I don’t know how I made this happen but I did it! I went through 52 books in 2017, out of which I read 46 books from cover to cover. But I know one thing for sure – It is because of my engagement on social media to share my love for the written word that pushed me to read more. I see so many books on Instagram which I know I would love to read, but in order to reach them I have to first read the ones already sitting on my shelf. So yes, that might be one of the reasons how I read so many books in a year.
Out of the 52, some made a pretty good impression on me. Some I knew would be good, and some were complete surprises. So here are the books (in order of being read) which made my 2017 –
