At the 1/3rd point in the year, I'm doing no better than so-so. Total number read is good, on schedule for >150. Above my base goal, but slightly below my stretch goal. Certainly, success on that stretch goal is within reach. But I'm doing a good deal less well on the secondary goal of keeping my lists up to date. Mostly, this is stress. I'm just not finding time to manage my library like I should.
A telling point is a high percentage of re-reads. I attribute this to the desire for known good quantities in my reading versus the risk of trying a new author and being thoroughly disappointed. And, I suspect, simply comfort level. I'm stressed at work, so looking for old, warm, fuzzy favourites.
