I'm so excited to start this, my goal is usually 50 for a year but can never make it. I am going to try and make sure I can actually do it this :D

My goal for the rest of the year is 50 books. I hope I can make it!!

In grade school, we had competitions to see who could read the most words by the end of the school year. The competition was fun and really encouraged the students to pick up a book and read.

I set mine to 40 books! I am currently at 22% so I still have a lot to read. I can do it!

I never set my self a goal of the number of books I want to read in a year.
If I did I would feel under pressure to achieve that goal. I read for pleasure and relaxation.
Setting myself a goal would make reading not enjoyable for me.

I set my goal for this year at 50 books, which at the rate I am going, I am sure I will pass.
