After I finally got back into reading and listening to books regularly, once I started hitting my volume goals, I began to set other types of goals for myself. Catching up on classics and iconic works that got by me during my school years was just one of my side-goals, in addition to hitting 150 books for the year. Another was to read more stories focused on women.
To be clear, I am a woman, and I obviously have my own perspective as one, but the older I get, the more aware I've become of how limited my knowledge is on the subject of feminism, the impact women have made in history, the struggles they've faced, and what it means to be a woman of a different culture, or from a different part of the world. Hey, if I'm going to wave around my 150-books-in-2025 achievement badge, I may as well be honest and say that I still have a lot to learn.
