I have a mix of reading goals for 2017, including:
- Catch up on one author I've fallen woefully behind reading
- Read a minimum of two backlist books by four different authors
- Pick 10 “Must Read” books for the year from my huge TBR (not including any new releases)
I'll just track my numbers here. I’m planning to complete multiple “17 in 2017” challenges where I read 17 books based around a particular theme or list (such as a challenge where you read older books, 1 per year published 1984-2000, books where the title or author name begins with the letter A, then B, C, etc through Q, as well as several themed challenges).
