Despite what Goodreads might be congratulating me on, I don't consider this challenge "complete" until I read 30 without the help of graphic novels...

...by my count I still have 9 more to go.

*NOW* I've read my goal for 2015. Wow - never hit the target before, so this is uncharted water. Curious to see how much further I can push this, so for now, I'm going to up the bar to 40 and see how things go.

Upping the bar yet again, having finished ten books over the last four weeks (how the heck did *that* happen?)

New 2015 goal is 50, not including graphic novels.

This is officially insane...

New 2015 goal is 60, not including graphic novels

It took two months to add ten this time instead of one...I may finally be running out of steam.

New 2015 goal is 70, not including graphic novels*


*with a quiet hope that 75 is attainable

Final tweak to the total, no matter what happens from here on out.

Final 2015 goal is 75, not including graphic novels
