2023 Reading List.
My goal for this 2023 is to read more. Not only that, I’d also like to be more aware of what I read, whether it may be a fiction or non-fiction books. My other goal, is to keep track of what I learn about those books in a writing form; this could be a phrase, an interesting fact, a word, a grammatical rule that reads good that I didn’t know about. Basically, the long-term goal for this enterprise is to build a personal knowledge database.
With that in mind, this is not written in stone. Part of this goal is also be flexible about the things I read as well, if this year is not enough time to read this entire list, that is just fine, I can resume the list the following year. Also, maybe there’s some interesting to read that will probably make it after I have published this list, for which maybe I could update the list later on. We’ll see.
