To read 200 books

Having finished my 150 book goal before the middle of December, and designating 2015 as "The Year of Juvenile Fiction", I'm going to increase my goal to 200 books. I'm keeping the companion/concurrent goal of 50,000 pages! So even though I'll be reading more books, the tween/teen books tend to have fewer pages on average.

Other goals:
* Finish 3 series: Elm Creek Quilts by Jennifer Chiaverini, Brother Cadfael by Ellis Peters, and Kris Longknife by Mike Shepherd. 36 of 36 books
* Review 42 SF items. This is not solely a book/reading goal, includes podcasts, TV shows, movies, short stories, essays, interviews, etc. 17 of 42
