After 2019’s ambitious goal to read 52 books, I decided to take it easy in 2020 and focus on two books every month instead of one book every week. This gave me the opportunity to read longer books and to go a bit deeper into the books I read.
Just like last year’s list, the books I really liked have one heart. The books I loved have two.
