My goal for the year is 75. Subject to change based on how often and where I end up traveling for work. Plane hopping from continent to continent allows for lots of book time!

I have built in book shelves along a 15ft wall in my den. That's where my non-educational books go. There is a a separate bookshelf with my text and reference books from college and any other business related books.

I like to think of books as both entertainment and home decor. You can never have a bland home if there are books inside.

I'm in! Birthday is Jan 10th, so I better find something quick.

I'm going to go for 60. I only have the first half of the year figured out workwise, but if the year is consistent it's doable.

I'm in! Level 4. There are tons of audiobooks in the Kindle Unlimited library. It's how I do most of my classics 'reading'
