What's your goal for 2013 and how are you doing so far?


message 2: by Stephanie (new)

Stephanie My goal is to read 200 books and so far I've knocked out 21!!!


message 3: by [deleted user] (new)

18/100

Most of those were in the holidays but I'm back at school now so it takes longer... I've almost finished City of Bones though I'm up to the epilogue so that counts... 19


message 4: by Jenn (new)

Jenn (jennmcd) I have a lot going on this year (possiby changing jobs & moving to another state), so I shortened by goal from 105 in 2012 to 75 in 2013. So far, I'm 15/75.


message 5: by Anna (new)

Anna (cheeruppirate) My goal is 50 (I only read 23 books last year so I'm challenging myself without going overboard). I've read 8 books so far which is 3 books ahead of schedule.

Jessica (Goldenfurpro) (goldenfurproductions) | 3160 comments My goal is 300 (I've read only 40 so far)
Yeah, I know that i'm not going to make it BUT I WAS SO CLOSE LAST YEAR!!!!!!


message 7: by Melanie (new)

Melanie (mcb573) Indus a challenge (not on goodreads) a few years back to read 100, and I only got to about 65, so I didn't want to go overboard and I am shooting for 80. I've read 8 so far so I am on track!

message 11: by [deleted user] (new)

31/100 -
I had a terrible reading year last year so I wanted to aim low. My real goal is 150.


message 12: by Tanya (new)

Tanya Johnson I read 40 books last year (I work full time, have a 5 year old and love to make cards) so my goal is 50 for this year and so far I've read 12 :)


message 13: by Kate (new)

Kate (misskella) | 1 comments My goal is to read a hundred books and I'm already at 32 books!! :)

message 15: by Alex (new)

Alex 18/120, I got off to a late start, but I/m getting there. Just haven't put them all on here yet.


message 16: by Melissa (last edited Mar 26, 2013 08:55AM) (new)

Melissa (sportzmomof5) Goal is 350 :) so far I have read 80 - it helps being a homemaker lol


message 17: by Mercedes (new)

Mercedes (mudmule99) Wow you guys are serious readers. I set my goal last year to 80 and made it. I'm only aiming for 50 this year. I'm working on my third novel so it's hard to read and write.

So far I'm at 14/50

message 18: by Krystel (new)

message 19: by Nikki (new)

Nikki Sojkowski (nikkisoj) | 868 comments my goal is 100 books at the moment but I'll probably increase that later on in the year, so far i've read 34.

message 21: by Samyuktha (last edited Mar 24, 2013 09:24AM) (new)

Samyuktha (bookworm6) My goal is 210 books. Since this is my first year doing the challenge I've aimed a little lower than my usual pace. Plus workload in school is increasing too. My real goal is at least 250 if not 300. I've read 41 books so far.


message 22: by Rachael (new)

Rachael F (rachaelreviewsall) | 3 comments At the moment mine is 50, and I'm already behind D: I think my 16 year old self would be so disappointed, but I've had to put reading on a backbench for the past couple of years, and want to aim low for now.


message 23: by [deleted user] (new)

I've only challenged myself to read 75, last year it was 100 but I just barely made that goal, so I've decided to narrow it down this year. So far I've only read 24 books, but it says, "Great work, you're 8 books (9%) ahead of schedule!"

I think I might need to make the goal 85 or 90 books so that it will be more of a challenge since I might easily read 75 way before the year ends ;)


message 24: by Shayna (new)

Shayna Varadeaux (ShaeAnn77) | 116 comments 28 of 200 gotta pick up my pace!


message 25: by Joanna Marie (new)

Joanna Marie (joannacapats) 9/20 :)


message 26: by Amanda (new)

Amanda Mullins 11/52 One for each week of the year.


message 27: by Alannah (new)

Alannah Hurley I calculated how many books I read in a school year it comes to about 25. But that doesn't count the summer so I read about 35 a year. Not bad considering I'm 12! I am serious I really am 12.

Sweetie, that fact that you're 12 is not exactly something you should be telling the internet... I mean, there are some SKETCHY people out there. But keep up the good work girlie, hope you enjoy those books :D

Nikki Sojkowski (nikkisoj) | 868 comments 60/100 so far. yay!


message 30: by Susan (new)

Susan (susanhafb) | 5 comments Ambitious folks you all are. I'm setting a low goal of 20. And those are only my books, not the stuff I read to or preview for my girls…although my 7 year old will probably be reading this stuff next year. Sigh. My 10 year old son reads mostly the same things (but more) as I do. Sigh. I'm at 8 so far but I have 2 major soccer seasons in there when my reading pretty much ceases :(


message 31: by Sarah (new)

Sarah Kliora (sarahgraykay) 18/50. Not bad considering this has been the most stressful year ever so far. Yay for junior year!


message 32: by Gergana (new)

Gergana 131/200 It`s not as much as last year, but it`s a good start!


message 33: by Sophie (new)

Sophie (sophie-sophie) | 23 comments My goal is 93 so far 18 :)
i wanna do 201 next year :D


message 34: by [deleted user] (new)

32/75 so far, 43% of the way through, 13 books ahead of schedule. I think I might need to increase my goal seeing as it's only the beginning of April. . .


message 35: by Angela (new)

Angela My goal is 150 books :P so far ive read 56 books xD im 17 books ahead of schedule


message 36: by Tirzah (new)

Tirzah I don't want to feel like I have to read a really large number if books because i feel like the pressure of a reading challeng might take some of the pleasure of reading away so this year my only goal is to enjoy what I read anther it takes reading it really slow or really quick.


message 37: by [deleted user] (new)

My goal is to try and read all the series i have (the one that i have all the books for) and that is about 17 books left.


message 38: by Samyuktha (new)

Samyuktha (bookworm6) 210 books for the whole year is my goal. I've read 65 books so far and I'm 5 books ahead of schedule.


message 39: by Gergana (new)

Gergana 200! 175 so far


message 40: by Luna (new)

Luna (korramoura) | 14 comments At first it was at 20. Then I change it to 25 unless I change it again. Right now I'm at 15 and still going strong!


message 41: by Tanya (new)

Tanya Johnson My goal was 50 and I'm already at 34. I'm thinking I may have to up it lol


message 42: by Taresa (new)

Taresa (pandabuddy13) My original goal was 113, but I was feeling pressured because I was getting behind, and I want to actually enjoy reading, so I lowered the number to 50 and now I'm on track. So far I've read 17 of the 50, but I'm hoping I can still make my original number now that the pressure is off.


message 43: by WhyYesIYA/Bebe (new)

WhyYesIYA/Bebe (whyyesiya) | 2 comments My goal is 100 books and I've already read 44

I relate to this.


message 45: by Mei (new)

Mei (meijey) my goal is 100 and I'm now 66 so I may still have to increase it :)


message 46: by Stormy (new)

Stormy :) (Stormy0218) | 1589 comments I don't fully enjoy the book if I feel pressured to read a lot of books, if you know what I mean. I'm shooting for 50, but I'm about half way there so I'm probably going to raise that.


message 47: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca Sanders (seebeccarun) Those of you with a goal of 200 books are impressive! My current goal is 110 books. So far, I've read 101. So, I'll definitely have to up the ante.


message 48: by Courtney (new)

Courtney My goal is 75, but considering I have already read 73 I think I am going to up the number to 100.


message 49: by Elizabeth Emily (new)

Elizabeth Emily Browne (snakesandladderrs) | 1 comments My goal for 2013 is 30 and I've read 6 so far :)


message 50: by Denise (new)

Denise (yarrow46) | 1 comments Set my goal for 100 books this year. Can't believe I'm at 90.
