I have done this now for the past three years and have been decently successful with it.. This year I have set a lot of goals for myself and really want to throw myself back into the book community and blogging world. The past year off has left me wanting so much from books because I have missed the atmosphere and love of books.
♠ Read at least 100 books. I have a challenge I have created for myself and its the year I take on some completed series. [ I have read a total of 11 books so far. A lot of stuff has been going on in my life and reading has fallen to the wayside. I have been reading more recently but have a lot to catch up with. ]
♠ Read and Complete 6 Series. This goes along with the challenge I have am creating. There are so many out that I have yet to pick up and its crazy. [I have completed one series so far this year out of the millions I want to complete check it out at series serial reader!]
♠ Read at least three daunting books. This is a repeat from last year.I feel like I am always so intrigued and interested in the huge books, but never get around to reading them because they are intimidating. (I am counting this as over 500 pages.) [I have not gotten there yet and with my slight slump I am stuck on which one I should pick up first that I will be able to fly through]
♠ Read 45 books from my TBR. I just recently moved and don’t have my books. I have been going to the library and with that it give way to an endless array of books. I really want to make sure I am still reading books that I had actually purchased. [I have been able to read 6 books from my TBR so far! ]
♠ Read at least 5 Non-Fiction Books. I started doing this last year and really enjoyed it. I love learning more and I have a lot I am interested in. [I have a whole long list of non-fiction books I want to complete this year (If this list is something people would like to see I will post it!) I have been able to complete 2 so far.]
♠ Start New Blog Series. I really want to work harder on developing my blog. There are many things I participate in that are created by other bloggers and I really want to come up with something that is completely my own and get others involved in! [I am kind of stumped with this one. I have been trying out a couple of things in my head. Some of my ideas I am just not sure what to name them.]
What are some of your 2017 goals/resolutions?

Wow I don’t think I could ever manage 100 books in a year- I’ve come to accept that I’m just not a fast reader haha! Good luck though and I hope you manage it!
Sorry that personal issues have derailed your reading a bit, but it’s good that you’re keeping track of your goals so you know where you’re at each month.
