Hopefully not to late to jump on. I've set a goal of 20 books for 2012 (but after going through my library history I'm farther ahead than I thought).

17-20) not done
Next, or soonish: The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini
(GoodReads "To Read" list here....in no particular order...)

Bonus Reads (FanFictions, BigBangs, Ect. Not really in order read anymore)

1) “This is not the House That Pain Built” 134 pages (35k words)
2) “Reddish Gold and Caramel” 153 pages
3) “The Song of the Treadmill” 166 pages
4) Bettaed – “Shifting Change” (working title) 138 pages (in word)
5) Bettaed – “Love Lies Burning” (working title) 191 pages (in word)
6) "Even a Man of Pure Heart" - around 25,500 words
7) "Step Into the Light" - 7,000 words, + "Step Out of the Fire", - 10,600 words + "Step Into Life" - 9,500 words
8) "I think therefore I am" - 37K words
9) "Superheroes Suck..." - 33,100 words
10) "Lakota Falls" - 38,492 words
11) "Zero Minus One" - ~31,800 words
12) "Dignity of Dragons" - ~51k words
13) "Open Heart Dentistry" - 25,000 words
14) "Two Cures for Love" - 35,000 words
(Lots of ongoing fics and probably lots more finished fanfictions I've forgotten about)

Set goals for 2012 of 20 dead tree books (which looks like I can surpass) and a goal of 10000 pages (or more...maybe not...).

End of year note: I failed to meet my # read goal...I got distracted near the end by fanfiction again and then with the process of buying my first home. I don't think I've met the # pages either but hard to say as most fanfiction is measured in words rather than pages and I'm just to lazy to convert it.
