I left last year having read exactly and barely my goal of 100 books (including manga, shorts, and mostly audio books) with no goal for 2023.
This year I had more in-office time plus a commute and am on track to have read a book for every 2 days in 2023 (183). Which…has now only become a goal in the last month or so.
Reserving books at the library and having short Audible Plus stints really drove urgency from time to time, especially where I struggle with visual reading. But I just found a lot of good books this year: 11 Tchaikovsky, 17 Pratchett, and 15 Sanderson-related (Dan Wells and Janci Patterson collabs), and lots of solid manga and sci-fi series that kept me juggling the next available book for a few series at a time. It’s been a ride and I’m only more excited for a lot of books and series in 2024.
So, I’m unsure if I should goal out fewer or more next year or just go with the flow again.
