Reading Lists

Do you have a reading list (or several)?

I tend not to bother with this. I read according to my mood. I tend to flit between non-fiction, read that, then move to fiction and read that for a while.

I also mix up whether I'm reading books or magazines, short stories or novels.

I can see the point of a reading list. My worry is I'd feel guilty if I didn't get to the bottom of it and, given there is always so much I would like to read, I never would! And reading should never encourage a feeling of guilt.

I also like mixing up my reading according to how I feel and not to some prescribed formula.

I receive notifications in from booksellers as to what is on their recommended list and I will take a look. I'll go for the suggestion if it takes my fancy but if not, forget it.

What matters is getting the reading done, list or no list!
