I hit my reading goal again in 2024, and so will set the bar higher for 2025. Watch me fail (lol). There’s really no failing in reading. So, my reading goal for 2025 is 100 books. My biggest genre in 2024 was mystery (no surprise there), and I doubt that will change much in 2025, but I will be making an effort to branch out a bit.
