Books To Read in 2021

I have been adding books to my "Want to Read" lists for 2021. If I was organised these would all be neatly together on Good Reads, but are actually scattered around Good Reads, Amazon wish lists and elsewhere, so I am going to jot down a list here as a reminder. 

Here are some books I hope to read in 2021:

Fiction

• The Book of Lost Names (Kristin Harmel)
• The Jane Austen Society (Natalie Jenner)
• The Midnight Library (Matt Haig)
• This is How You Lose the Time War (Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone)

• The Dark Archive (Genevieve Cogman)  - Invisible Library series #7

• The Subtle Knife (Philip Pullman)
• The Amber Spyglass (Philip Pullman)

• Endell Street: the Women Who Ran Britain's Trailblazing Military Hospital (Wendy Moore)

• Nye: the Political Life of Aneurin Bevan (Nicklaus Thomas-Symonds)

I like to give myself an annual Challenge target on Good Reads. For the past two years I have set a target of 52 and only made it to 35. This year I have rounded down to 50, and as I am determined to read more this year I hope to achieve it.
