Last year I set a goal of 25 books and as I am writing this today, I have already eclipsed that goal by 9. I will likely finish 1-2 more books this month. Going into 2019, my reading habits will likely change and I cannot see myself reaching the same number I did in 2018. I recently moved and no longer have a commute to work, which is where I knocked out the majority of my audio books. I also recently started a graduate program that will take a slight toll on my personal reading time. For 2019, I will be shooting for 25 books.

DNF
What are you studying?You have a section for DNF? Do you DNF a lot?
Good luck with the challenge!
25 is a great goal, Anthony! Do you already have some books planned for 2019? Happy Reading!
I did have three DNFs this year, so I put that in there for future use if need be. I do not usually DNF, this was a new experience for me. I just got bored listening to Alexander Hamilton and A Gentleman in Moscow and then I checked out the Order of the Phoenix through Libby and my reservation ran out before I could finish it. I do have some books planned for 2019. I picked up a few Stephen King books from the local thrift shop for real cheap (Hearts in Atlantis, Insomnia, Gerald's Game, and the Green Mile). I also need to finish the Southern Reach Trilogy by Jeff VanderMeer, I just need to finish the last book. I would like to finish Harry Potter in 2019 and dig into my TBR list. It has gotten pretty long in the last year.
Makes sense. It's very rare for me to DNF books as well. I think the last eight years I may have DNF'd three at most.
Well that's an accomplishment. The goal is to return to them this year. We shall see.
How is it going so far this year?
You've already read 18 books! Which one is your favourite so far this year? :)
Finishing the Harry Potter series was special. The last two books were amazing.
