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.

I went big last year and set a goal of 100 books/audiobooks. I didnt think I had a super high chance of making it initially but I actually ended up doing it. It was like 85% audiobooks and probably 20% of that was stuff I had read or listened to before but it still felt good to hit that goal. My 2026 goal is to try to get through everything that I currently own but have not read yet, which is probably 20-30 books total so not nearly as many but all physical books and mostly non-fiction so it will be a good change of pace.
