This coming year I expect to keep my goals much the same. A base goal of 120 books read or abandoned -- 10 books a month. With a stretch goal of 15 books a month (180 books.) 14 books a month, or 168 books total. Based on this year, I think it highly unlikely that I'll reach that stretch goal, but that's the point.

My sub-goal is to keep closer track of how much I've spent and what I've actually bought, with an end of year goal of being at least neutral -- reading as many books as I buy.

ETA: Changed to 14 books/month for a stretch. Even that is very unlikely, based on my reading this last year.
