To be clear: I didn't mean to imply that keeping lists and making reading goals was in any way silly or weird. It's just that I'm a bit surprised how common the practice apparently is among readers. I guess I've never needed any incentive to read as many books as humanly possible in the amount of free time I have to do so. That's just a given.
To those who have met or exceeded their goals... I salute you! To those who have fallen a bit short... better luck next time; don't get hung up on it.
