Do you set any kind of reading goals?

Do you try to read a certain number of books a year?

Do you want to read more of a certain genre? Or just more of a variety of genres?

I am curious to hear about any kind of reading goals you may have.

Mostly just to finish Wheel of Time I think.

I’d also like to read Dungeon Crawler Carl #8 early summer.

I’ll probably read Sunrise on the Reaping before the movie drops as well.

Other than that, I don’t usually set hard goals. I just like to read. ^_^

Oh yeah, maybe I’ll finish the rest of the Red Rising series. I took a break at the end of book 3, since it seemed like a solid stopping point. Oh yeah, and I want to read the Poppy War (trilogy?) and Blood Meridian…

Backlogs are hard.

I think no goals and just read is a great goal! I used to push myself more, but I think I’ve finally got the habit down enough that I don’t need to. I’m at the point where I read more than I watch tv.

My backlog is kind of crazy too. My TBR is basically my bookcase 🤣
