Total Men Read in 2024

Ashleigh

During 2024, I read 41 books by men from across the world. As with my other reading, I have done my best to be as diverse as possible with what I read for review and other reading, and I have included anthologies edited by women here because they include essays or stories by men, and… Continue reading Total Men Read in 2024

Cowritten Books and Anthologies Read

Ashleigh

In 2024 I read several books that were written by two or more people, and some anthologies. I separated the counts out in 2023, but for 2024, I have combined them, because I felt that there weren’t enough to split into two separate posts this time. It’s also easier, because some anthologies can count as… Continue reading Cowritten Books and Anthologies Read

LGBTQIA Authors 2024

Ashleigh

In 2024, I also aimed to read more LGBTQIA authors, but one thing I struggled with here was the amount of romance books on offer. As someone who doesn’t read romance as a genre in general (though I don’t mind it as part of the story, it’s just that I tend to get bored when… Continue reading LGBTQIA Authors 2024

Non-Australian Authors 2024

Ashleigh

In 2024, I did my best to work out how my complete totals broke down into various categories. One of these categories was Non-Australian authors – and these authors could come from any country other than Australia. No limitations other than what I had, bought, was given as a gift or sent for review, so… Continue reading Non-Australian Authors 2024

My Reading Summary 2023

Ashleigh

Now that I have gone in-depth with my reading from 2023, here are my reading statistics at a glance, worked out throughout the year as I read a range of things. Some books may have fitted into multiple categories, and I hope I have reflected this in my posts and these numbers. I am not… Continue reading My Reading Summary 2023

Books Read by Non-Australian Men

Ashleigh

There were a few categories that didn’t quite have as many books read as others, and one of these was Non-Australian Men. Often this came down to what I received for review or what appealed to me, as sometimes there were things that didn’t stand out over other things. Other reasons included time – I… Continue reading Books Read by Non-Australian Men
