52 books in 52 weeks

Table of Contents

Update: 2022-10-18

Newest update: at the end of September I decided to end of my reading project. Read the details…

1 Why?

I asked myself: What if I do a reading project in 2022? Read a book a week, 52 books in 52 weeks.

  • It can be anything, fiction or non-fiction doesn't matter.
  • Only new books, no re-reads.
  • It starts on January 3rd, the first full week of 2022.
  • I will have a weekly post about my experience and the book that I read. Depending on my time. (update: scratch that)
  • "translation" means I read it in my native language.
  • I put non-fiction books in bold.

3 Book list

4 Side reading (not restricted to one book per week)

This is reading on the side, when I have time or mood. Usually longer books that I don't think I can read in a week, or non-fiction books that I want to read deeply and writing notes.
