Also - I'm basing everything on a lower milestone. I'm only at 51 now and I've had a pretty 'readerly' year. So I don't think 100 books is a reasonable basis for my challenge in the first place.
I'm interested in this, having done the 100 books for two years now. How do you go about setting that goal? What is your ballpark range?
