Lincoln in the Bardo | George Saunders

My 2017 reading goals were to finish 60 books and to read with more diversity in mind.

I finished 64 books

Non-white/LGBT authors and/or subject matter - 28
36 by men, 27 by women, 1 non-binary author

2 on @SerialReader , 33 on paper, 5 on Kindle, and 24 audiobooks

Lincoln in the Bardo was my favorite fiction, followed closely by Monte Cristo and Constellation. Just Mercy and Changing Our Mind were my favorite non-fiction.

I love reading lists, and am so glad President Obama decided to share his from 2017. (I miss him!) We both put Evicted on our best of lists, so I'm feeling pretty smart. I decided to post this so I can refer back to it again later. I already read Exit West and A Gentleman in Moscow, plus a few of these are already on my TBR. #TBR #Bestof2017 #Obama2017List

MallenNC @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I only read it in November of this year. I'm going to pretend it was because I was just as busy as President Obama until then. 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @MallenNC Maybe you were reading it at the same time as Obama! 👍 7y
MallenNC @Riveted_Reader_Melissa I like that idea. 7y
Riveted_Reader_Melissa @MallenNC You were Book Buddies! 💙 7y

Remember when we had a reader-in-chief instead of a tweeter-in-chief? He‘s still sharing his best of lists, so I thought you‘d be interested. I love that he reads fiction too! I‘m seeing many of these on our lists also. There are more song choices that got cut off, but it‘s on FB if you want to see the rest. #readerinchief #barakobama #bestof2017

Reecaspieces And look a Mississippi girl is on the list. Go Jesmyn 7y
Sue That‘s cool! I‘m a little surprised Dying by Cory Taylor crossed his path - it‘s a tiny Aussie memoir, nominated for the Stella Award. Well worth a look! 7y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Reecaspieces I‘ll bet he liked her other books also! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Sue I think it‘s great that he reaches outside U.S. borders! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @mrp27 @Jinjer @Cortg You‘re welcome! 📚💚📚💚 7y
danielle_framed I cannot picture Obama singing along to Havana!! 😜 LOL 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @danielle_framed What I‘d pay to see it, though! 7y
