2016 Reading Challenge
Scott programed a cool feature enabling one to set a reading goal. You can now set your 2016 reading goal on our Bookshelves, and your progress will be tracked as you mark the books you have read through the year. So if you're hoping to read more books in 2016, take our ultimate reading challenge and set up a goal on your profile. At the end of the year you can see if your goal was met. Good luck!

What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

I see we are both targeting 100 in 2016! I had a tentatively target of 100 this year but only made it to 71 (reading 2 at the moment & hopefull will get them read before the 31st and that will bring me to 73) but in my defence there were a good few very big books in my 2015 reading list.
Good luck & we'll see how we go ..... lots of enjoyment ahead

Well done! 71 books is pretty awesome.
I also had a target of 100 this year, but didn't make it. I have read around 90 books this year. Anyway, this is just for fun. Thank you and good luck to you too!

I'm still not sure what goal to set for 2016. I think I might set a smaller goal - 80 books, maybe, but to vow to review more. I would really like to get into the habbit to review more often, because there are so many wonderful books I read, and I want to share them and let people know.
In any case, I will be doing a TBR challenge. I will try to buy less new books, and read the one I already own.

This year I'd like to spend less time on reading books, and more on writing them!

I set a goal of 30 books this year and ended up reading 38! So I'll increase the number to about 50, since I'll be graduating college and I'll have more time to read (but that still depends on whether I'll be working or not).

I'm going to keep it modest, since I'll be going to university next year and I am not so sure what the year will have in store for me.
I think 40 will be a good first-time goal...
