Goodreads 2020 Reads vs Real 2020 Real Reads

Happy Thursday y’all! This year, I’ve been really bad at making sure that my read books actually match up with the books in my reading challenge on Goodreads- like my Goodreads says that I’ve only read 41 books, but in reality, I just finished book number 81 yesterday, which is crazy! Most of the time, my issue is just that I don’t feel like opening up Goodreads and finding the book I’m reading on there to state that I’m reading it, but writing it in my reading progress note on my phone/laptop is so easy!

Let’s go ahead and compare what’s on them, shall we?

Here’s a list of everything I’ve read so far on Goodreads (with links to the ones that I’ve reviewed on here, if you’re interested in learning more about them/my thoughts on them):

Haha that’s an extra 40 romance novels on top of my already skewed towards romance numbers for the year, so my stats are going to be way off, but I don’t really mind it because I enjoyed what I was reading, and that’s all that matters. I’m far more likely to put my fantasy books on Goodreads because those are more often than not the ones I get on Goodreads or the ones that I have already marked as to read on there, so I think that’s a sign that I need to mark more romances as to read. Also, at some point before the end of 2020, I need to make sure to go in and add these books to my read shelf…
