I have never made a reading goal before but am doing one this year! My goal is relatively low at 28 books. I wish I could read more but always busy so hopefully I can get to 28!

Latest Review: "The Banned Book about Love" by Scott Hughes

Never had a reading goal before, even in middle school. Sounds like a great idea though.
I'm setting about 90 books, by my best guess I've read about 60 books in 2015.
We'll see whether I get there haha:)

I love setting reading goals, my goal for this year is to read 70 books. I've read two already which I would totally recommend, the first is called Dumplin' and the other one is called My Grandmother asked me to tell you that she's sorry, they are completely different in every aspect, but they make for a good read. I am currently reading Armada and so far it has an interesting beginning.

Oh, I do have a challenge! It's an enormous challenge - 80 books in a year! And I do have to read a lot of books on a side for my uni. Don't know why I have these masochistic preferences :D

I have never done a reading challenge before, probably because I have always been "too busy" for reading. This year I'm making time for 20 books! I know it sounds low, but I'm new to heavy reading. I'm excited to see if I can make it!

For the last two years I've tried to read 100 books per year, for 2015 I was fortunate enough to read 178 books (I include manga in this number).
This year I hope to read at least 175 where at least 150 are works of fiction or non-fiction and not graphic novels.

I've been keeping a "Book Review" of my own for years, recording each book by author as I finish and rating it. Name an author and I can tell you what I've read.
