Instead of resolutions this year, I want to have some general reading goals this year. First and foremost, I want to read the books that are already in my house. I'd like to read more Pulitzer Prize books. I'd like to focus on these authors (in no particular order): Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust, Ernest Hemingway, William Faulkner, Graham Greene, Alice Munroe, Lydia Davis, Margaret Atwood, John Updike, and Haruki Murakami.
