Hay artículos y servicios que uso, me gustan, y a veces escribo sobre ellos aquí en braeuNERD, en donde puedes encontrar enlaces de afiliado. Si realizas una acción (si haces una compra) después de hacer clic en uno de los enlaces de afiliación, probablemente ganaré unos cuántos centavitos y me iré a comprar un café (¡sin costo adicional para ti!). Sólo recomiendo artículos y servicios que he probado personalmente o libros que he leído.

This “reading goals blog entry” is more of a personal accountability post which I intend to update yearly.

Many years ago, I decided I wanted a (probably lifelong) challenge of reading the Daria Morgendorffer reading list, the Rory Gilmore reading list, and (potentially, though I’m still debating its feasibility) the Lisa Simpson reading list. This year, I’ve added a new reading goal to my life: reading at least one author from every country. Below you will find both tables. Feel free to steal this if you have the same goals!

A Note on Gilmore Girls: the list is not 100% cleaned yet from books that were just, for example, mentioned by Richard at a Friday dinner vs what Rory actually read.

If you’re on Goodreads, let’s connect! Or subscribe to this page for more book reviews.

Now, the lists:

As if that wasn’t enough…this year I decided to include in my readings more diversity in authors. I was going through my Goodreads data for one BYOD from TidyTuesday (i.e. I was making a data visualization about the nationalities of the authors I’ve read), and I’m not happy with the result. Most of the author’s I have read throughout my life are predominantly from the U.S. and U.K., a nice variety of Latin American authors but not enough as I would like to. Therefore, my new (probably also lifelong) reading goal is to read at least one book from an author of each country.

(if more than 5, I’m not listing them all)
