My goal is 75 and I've read 71. It started out 65 but I kept reading graphic novels and felt like I was cheating-Haha.

Mine is 120, well, it started as 50 books, but when I had finished that I kept adding 10 books every time, now it's 120 and I already have it.
I don't have a 2016 reading goal yet, because I only recently joined GoodReads and I didn't know about the reading goal challenge, but I'm hoping to set a goal for next or next next year.
Mine is 100. I'm at 87 I think and reading short books the rest of the year just to clear out my stash. But next year I am planning to read 40-50 longer books.
Mine was 5 because I just started reading again now that I have teens that are never home. I have now changed that to 10, but I am on number 7. For next year my goal is 35.
I had to keep changing my goal because I kept exceeding it. It went from 300 to 1000 books and I'm not changing it again, I've change my reading goal about six times - no more I tell you! So far I've read 840 book. XD

Oh my goodness, that's a huge goal! Good luck! :) I have the feeling you'll exceed this one too xD

How do you read so many? Do you actually read every word in the book?
It's great to see people are so full of energy and passionate about completing challenges.Guys, but it's not about just finishing the number of books.It is much more than that.It is about sharing what you have read and bringing people to explore the world of books who actually haven't read at all in their lives.Still everyone of you is doing amazing job here.Hope you read many more :)

Then again I have read quiet a few big books this year... I think this proves that I have WAY too much time on my hands lately.
Yeah, I can read fast in my head but when I try to read out loud its the opposite and then I start getting bored of my own voice and then I stop to carry on reading in side my head.
I know I can't either, one of my biggest (silliest) fears is that I'll run out of book to read and that I'll get so bored that it wont be funny. lolz
I stopped reading for so manu years because life always git in the way but since December 2015 I've been reading ALL the time. My family days it's annoying but I just can't stop. I just finished Reconstructing Amelia, Acient Guardians book 1 and I'm on 2 now. I last counted at month and a half ago and I was at 59 books but I read athe least 10 books since then.
I have a small goal for 2016 ; I want to read at least 24 books, but maybe it's gonna be more hehe ;)
I only have a goal of 30 this year. Currently on my 27th book :)
