Looking ahead, I would like to decrease the amount of reviews dedicated to American and British authors. Combined, they make up 37% of the total books reviewed, which is far too many. I hope to broaden my own reading into other nations and times, as so far there seems to be quite the focus on contemporary authors writing in English.

Overall, though, I am not unhappy with the breakdown of authors. The list is very fiction-heavy, with only a handful of purely non-fiction works. I intend to keep that percentage low, as my own personal preference tends very heavily towards fiction. That is not to say I do not read non-fiction, but at present I feel less comfortable in reviewing it.

It shall be interesting indeed to review this list and the ongoing totals come 200 reviews.
