Good to see that so far, everybody is close to or met some of their goals. CRussell, I hope life stops throwing too much at you, but I know that once you get behind listing, it is pretty hard to catch up. I was listing my purchases and that got out of hand (but I do have them all listed on a spreadsheet).

As to my goals, I far surpassed my 100 book goal this year primarily due to my knee injury and more limited activity. My budget was toast by April. Magazine reading also fell to the wayside as did my visits to the YMCA (which is where I was reading them). Better in 2020.

An unstated goal was to complete several series and I have done that! Finished several trilogies that had been started before and finally finished Diskworld! I am also 3 books shy of completing the 55 book 87th Precinct series by Ed McBain.

Next year, I have a fair number of doorstops to read/listen, so instead of total books, I'm looking to reading at least 3,000 pages per month as a goal. Once again, I will strive to lower my TBR. I want to end the year with at least 10 fewer titles separately in audiobooks, ebooks and magazines.
