I would like to read at least a hundred every year, but as of now, I'd say my average yearly count is between 70 and 80

I read an average of 25-30 books per year, I'm a slow reader and I don't know how to change it :lol2:

I managed to reach 150 last year so I set up the same goal. I read half physical, half audio. I can manage to do some reading during my job (about 1 hour), and I have quite a lot of free time otherwise. I listen to audiobooks when I am doing house chores.

I try to read at least 50 every year ! I'm currently at 75, and would like to take the regular up a notch by reading at least a hundred every year.

Usually about 30-35. I am trying for 50 this year. I might make it, I'm over half way there. I started listing them years ago. So far I'm somewhere north of 900 read.

I like to count because sometimes I am so busy I forget to read for fun. Then I started wondering in 2005 what I had read. So I decided to keep track. It was interesting to know.

I journaled the books that I read. I write its title, author, and the dates I finished reading. But I haven't counted it recently, but I think I finished a maximum of 40 books this year, and I'm proud of myself. I took it as a small win. I hope it doubled next year! That's the next goal, hopefully, it will.

About 200-250 per year but don't read for quantity, just quality.
