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.

I have been reading quite a bit lately, but definitely not as many as I was hoping for seeing as I was on vacation the first week of the month. I am sitting at 41 books read, which puts me close to 11 books ahead of my year goal which is great!

♠ Complete 10 Series.

I have completed 2 so far , plus caught up on two series with all of the published books. So it kind of makes it 4

♠ Read at least 5 Non-Fiction/Classics 

I have started a few, but I have not completed any still. I have a ton that I am hoping to get to, I just need to pick them up and start them.

♠ 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! Quite a few books I have read have gotten really close, like the last one was 496 pages.

♠ Be more selective with ARCs

I feel like I haven’t been requesting as many ARCs as normal, but somehow I have ended up with a ton and they all seem to be publishing very soon.

♠ Read 3 Buy 1 – Book Banning 

I did a lot better this month with not buying books, but still failing at the read 3 buy 1 method. There is no hope with this, especially since I have fallen down a paranormal romance hole.

♠ Read 12 E-Books

I have finished 9 ebook so far. Some happen to be Kindle Unlimited books so they are not ones I owe so I feel like I should not count them, but I have definitely been reading a ton more and making a focus to work on my kindle tbr.

How are you doing with your Book/Reading Goals ?
