My #2019ReadingGoal was to read a book per week. Books have been most cherished and loved companions ever since I was the little girl who loved the library who grew up to be a writer. Here’s the thread about what I read this year 
Here are the titles and authors of the 52 books I read this year for my #2019ReadingGoal

- 3 were by men
- 2 were by non-binary or gender non-confirming people
- At least 19 were by queer authors and-or featured #LGBTQ characters

Book 52 done! My #2019ReadingGoal was to read a book per week. Here are the 52 (with four in next tweet that I gave to others during travels). More soon with titles and info on authors. First, I celebrate and appreciate the words that have been much-loved companions in 2019!
Here are the four to add to the pile. #2019ReadingGoal
Thank you, authors! #2019ReadingGoal
My #2019ReadibgGoal was to read a book per week. I just finished book 51. It was my first Natalia Ginzburg.
I’m on book 52 now. When I finish it, I will post pics of the entire pile of books which have been mostly by women, queer authors, in translation, sometimes all three. I have LOVED reading my way through the year and posting mini reviews on Instagram. #2019ReadingGoals
I am very lucky to have been invited to speak at great festivals such as @akefestival in #Nigeria & @Abantu_ in South Africa & @BradfordLitFest in the UK, and where I encountered truly global, inclusive and diverse books. Most of the authors I’ve read have been people of colour.
My #2019ReadingGoal was to read a book per week. Yesterday I finished book #50. I’m now trying to decide on the two books to take me to my goal. I will write about it all at the beginning of the year. I have LOVED it.
I have focused on writers of colour, especially queer womxn. Next two books will probably be by Nigerian and Omani women. #2019ReadingGoal
I’ve collected all the books I’ve read this year together on a shelf and I’m excited to post a picture of the pile! #2019ReadingGoal
