I was thinking the same thing.

'personal favourites' is the reason you want to read them most. (And yes, they may turn out to be a disappointment after reading...)

I agree. Just because I really want to read a book, it doesn't mean that I shall then consider it a personal favourite, even if it's by a favourite author of mine such as Hilary Mantel.

Is it the list description you're referring to? If so, could you let me know why? Thanks!

My personal favourites can be found by looking at my 'read' bookshelf (and then sorting it by rating), as there are a lot of them...

This list is for books we want to read in 2021, not for books we have already read and consider our personal favourites.


I work at a bookstore so its all a never ending story for me.
No period , only commas.

So have I 😀 But I daren't look too far ahead. I often plan to read certain books and then things get in the way and the books are left for another year (I couldn't say how long The Slynx has been residing on my "books to read first" list!).
Also, I fear I have made a tentative New Year's resolution to read several books that I probably won't want to keep after reading, thereby creating some much-needed space. It wouldn't do to add those to this Listopia 😉

It is so hard for me to get rid of books. Even the ones I don't like ...

Helene Hanff helped me enormously with that, many years ago. And Marie Kondo gave me an extra push, with her "hold each item in your hand and ask if it sparks joy". That way, I was f.e. able to get rid of a few Ian McEwan books and most of my Fay Weldons, all of which I had kept through the years as a matter of course.
