Linda’s review of 2025 on Goodreads > Likes and Comments

Congratulations on meeting and surpassing your overall reading goal, Linda! You do a percentage for foreign language reads? I do a specific number: namely 12, 1 per month, but often go over. Systrarna is a mega long book! Hurrah for even tackling it! Wow. And 28 off Mt TBR, that's hugely liberating, isn't it?

Happy New Year! May you reach your 10% and shave another peak off Mt TBR in 2026 !

Yeah, I think maybe percentage wasn't the way to go. I'm thinking of setting a small goal for 2026, such as just one book per language, and aiming for that. Being pessimistic about my chances of success makes it more likely that I'll meet or exceed the goal, right? Maybe one day I'll be able to read as many in my other languages as you do, but I'm pretty slow in most of my non-native languages, unfortunately.

Happy New Year!
