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 read 36 books last year. Most of them were 300 pages or less. This year, I'm going to try reading at least 18 books, some of them being more than 300 pages long or rereads. I think that reading this amount of books will improve my retention.

Furthermore, I usually "study" philosophical and political texts. This year, I will try to look for some novels.
