• Fifty for a Goodreads goal was still too much. I'm back down to 45 to try for during 2020.
• YA contemporary/realistic fiction appears to still be a current favorite.
• I'm back on the ARC/Review list for a local publishing company!
• If it's on my Kindle, I'll read it. This needs to be remembered.
• I doubled my Beehive Award long list reading this year! Wah!
• I need to get back to supporting Utah authors. What happened to that endeavor?

Observations:

• At this time last year I was worried about the changes coming up for the channel, and my worries are coming true. There is definitely less enthusiasm going on with those involved! But... we aren't dead yet.
• At this time NEXT year, we should have more than 1000 videos uploaded! That's seriously crazy.
