Here goes year 5 doing this! I completed about half of my 2018 Bookish Bucket List last year and want to work pretty hard to be able to say at the end of the year I completed it! And I set myself both blogging and reading goals this year instead of combining them into one list. I am really trying to challenge myself this year and really focus on being a blogger and a reader. If you would like to see what my goals are for blogging you can check them out here!
♠ Read at least 50 books.
Heading into March, I have read a total of 12 books! Which puts me ahead on my reading goals!
♠ Complete 10 Series.
I have completed 1 so far, but in the works for quite a few!
♠ Read at least 5 Non-Fiction/Classics
I have started a few, but I have not completed any. I also received Becoming by Michelle Obama this past month and really want to get to it soon !
♠ Read at least 6 BIG books. {I am counting this as over 500 pages.} Check out my list of Big Books I want to read in 2019
Last year I failed at this challenge, so far this year I have completed 3 Big Books, which is half of my goal!
♠ Be more selective with ARCs
I feel like I have had to say no to quite a few offers and opportunities so that I do not overwhelm myself and not uphold my end. I still feel like I have quite a few ARCs and need to work on working on that pile!
♠ Read 3 Buy 1 – Book Banning
I did not buy any books (for myself) this month! I am going to try and keep that up since I have more than 300 unread books
♠ Read 12 E-Books
I am currently reading an ebook, but have yet to finish one.
How are you doing with your Book/Reading Goals ?

I forced myself to stop buying books, but then I started buying games. I just need to stop buying anything lol. Great goals!
I buy everything and always justify it to myself
You’re doing so well! I should be more selctive with ARCs but Netgalley is too tempting lol
I totally get that. Sometimes I request all these books on netgalley and then when I get the acceptance emails I question myself why . It becomes overwhelming.
Exactly! I’ll just think “Ah I’ll get maybe 2 or 3 of these” And then weeks later I have 5 ARCs that are going to be archived in a few weeks
