And at this point in December, I have exceeded my 2016 goals of 168 books and 50,000 pages.

Totals:
180 books, 59,897 pages

By the end of November, my stats looked like this:

November 2016: 21 books, 7261 pages
-- 19 EB, 2 audio -- 16 library, 2 KU -- 4 Newbery

... due to reading these 6 books after my previous post:
16. Witch is When My Heart Broke by Adele Abbott
17. Rusty Nail by J. A. Konrath
18. Fire and Ice by J. A. Jance
19. The Hot Gate by John Ringo
20. Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli
21. The Great Cake Mystery by Alexander McCall Smith

And, that last book in November was the one that met my 2016 goal of 168 books. Which meant that my reading in December was no-stress, although I still needed to complete my secondary goals:

1. Read at least $10 worth of books from Kindle Unlimited each month (that is ... get my money's worth)
2. Read at least 12 Newbery Award books. (Stretch goal: Complete all Newbery Award books for 2010-2016: 25 books through 2015, up to 5 more with 2016 awards)

For these, I've read $100.11 worth of books from Kindle Unlimited so far this year. I've borrowed a couple of books, and now I just need to get around to reading them! The good news is that I've read 12 Newbery Award books -- meeting my goal. And, I have 2 Newbery books loaded onto my Kindle and I hope to complete them by the end of the year.

December 2016 (so far): 12 books, 3845 pages
-- 12 EB -- 12 library, 0 KU -- 6 Newbery

1. Judgment Call by J. A. Jance
2. Remains of Innocence by J. A. Jance
3. The Golden One by Elizabeth Peters
4. The Old Blue Line by J. A. Jance
5. When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead
6. El Deafo by Cece Bell
7. The Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Speare
8. The End of All Things by John Scalzi
9. Moon Over Manifest by Clare Vanderpool
10. School Ship Tobermory by Alexander McCall Smith
11. The War that Saved My Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley
12. Turbo Twenty-three by Janet Evanovich
