A shelf of old books

This year I decided to do a reading challenge.  The challenge is to read a number of books in a few areas of interest to me.  It gets me going in several areas that I think are important for my personal growth and will hopefully get a few books off my ‘to-read’ list at Goodreads.

I’ve decided the four areas that I want to do my reading in, but I haven’t figured out which books in each category I’m going to read.  So, if you are familiar with the genre/category, please feel free to give me recommendations on what to read in the comments.

I like to read a wide variety of stuff with both fiction and non-fiction. For the non-fiction end of things, I’d like to do some reading about Buddhism and Leadership this year.  For the fiction side of things, I’d like to read some Steam Punk fiction and a couple of graphic novels as well. 1

I’m keeping it small and manageable and will pick 2 books per category to read during the year.  That’s only 8 books, less than 1 per month!2

  1. Ok, I know graphic novels aren’t a genre per se, but it’s a form of media that I’m getting increasingly interested in personally and professionally. []
  2. Which is good since I will be doing more writing than reading during November. []
