My goal for 2019 was to read 12 books. I re-read 12 books and read 6 new ones for a total of 18. I’m including all the books I re-read in my list here this year.

I’m going for 15 in 2020.

Here’s the list of books I read in 2019, organized by date read.

1. Skyward by Brandon Sanderson. This book is different from his usual books in that its a sci-fi book instead of fantasy. Turns out, he can do sci-fi extremely well.

2. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling. I re-read these every few years.

3. The Obelisk Gate (The Broken Earth, #2) by N.K. Jemisin. These books are incredibly well written and excellent, but I’m not sure I can continue the series. It’s weird: I like the story, but it takes too much mental effort for me to keep up.

4. Wundersmith: The Calling of Morrigan Crow (Nevermoor #2) by Jessica Townsend. Wonderfully magical series.

5. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling.

6. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling.

7. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling.

8. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling.

9. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling.

10. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling.

11. Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds by Brandon Sanderson.

12. The Bayern Agenda by Dan Moren.

13. The Calculating Stars by Mary Robinette Kowal.

14. Age of Legend (The Legends of the First Empire, #4) by Michael J. Sullivan. Solid installment in a very good series.

15. Theft of Swords (The Riyria Revelations, #1-2) by Michael J. Sullivan. First time re-reading this series. Just as good the second time through it.

16. Rise of Empire (The Riyria Revelations, #3-4) by Michael J. Sullivan.

17. Heir of Novron (The Riyria Revelations, #5-6) by Michael J. Sullivan.

18. The Crown Tower (The Riyria Chronicles, #1) by Michael J. Sullivan. This is a prequel to the Riyria Revelations, but if you do read the series read this one after the Revelations series.
