I have started reviewing the 100 books I read in 2020 to see which authors I read and information about them. It appears I read books written by 52 different authors. I alphabetized the list and started looking at where they were from and their gender.
The first 28 authors broke down as:
19 authors from the United States with 13 different States represented. A couple of the authors were actually born abroad and one, Cassandra Clare appears to have moved around the world with her parents so I don't have a state assigned to her. One of the 19 was Native American belonging to one of the Lakota Tribes (Sioux).
4 Authors were British, 2 were Irish, 2 were Irish and one was born in Cyprus but one parent is British. I tentatively have them listed as being from Cyprus.
Of those first 28, 20 were male and 8 female.
My mix of reading material in 2020 came from the BBC Big Read Top 200 list, Modern Library Best Novels of the 20th Century List, Goodread Best Authors and miscellaneous.
I plan to finish the statistics on 2020 but also look at 2019 and of course 2021.
